One thing that might counteract this is that right now, violating user's privacy is normalized. Regulation exists (GDPR), enforcement is missing. Everyone is doing it, most sites have cookie notices/consent forms that blatantly violate GDPR, and because everyone is doing it, nobody is willing or motivated to change.

Break the platform and force everyone to re-engineer, and you can start severely hitting the companies that continue violating GDPR in the "new world".
