Gdpr introduces a cost but from what I heard,it's very messy.

What is needed is civil laws that permit lawsuits and restraining orders against tech companies as well as criminal statutes to imprison CEOs of companies that willfuly track users against their wish.

For example,Facebook's CEO should be criminally prosecuted for "shadow profiles" collected against non-users. I should be able to file a restraining order against Google preventing them from stalking me online.

I don't care if they pay a hundred billion dollars to the government,I want clear and specific lines drawn with clear and efficient consequences.

Consider this: under CFAA, intentionally attempting to gain unauthorized access to a system can result in a federal criminal prosecution. Google and Facebook are intentionally collecting unauthorized information on individuals who have clearly expressed their desire to not be tracked by them(browser settings and http headers). Their CEOs should be just as liable as an individual would if that individual was stalking another person or logging into their account against their permission.
