It's worth reading. It will remind you of the rule of law; that we all should follow the laws because it makes society better. You can speed your car down the road and there is no mechanism to prevent you from breaking the limit, but most people don't do this because they respect speeding laws and why they were created.

Same thing here. Yes GDPR has no mechanism to enforce these things. It's up to everyone to respect the law and enforce it upon themselves. If you don't respect laws, then you don't respect 'em, simple as that. Eventually, you will get caught.
