Fines for larger companies are either too small to matter or will be negotiated down. Larger companies also have a much easier time gaining consent (like Google and Facebook) that clears their usage while smaller companies struggle. This can be seen by the constant consent popups on every website. Users click yes on the major sites, then deny the rest. |

I feel the opposite may be true. When the law came to pass, I took some time to review my privacy options on Google and Facebook, since they are a big impact for me.
On the other hand, when I click on a link on HN to some random news paper, and get presented with a five-step process to start to see my options, I don't usually bother and dismiss it as soon as I can, probably with some 'opt-in' consent. Since I'm not planning on viewing the site again, I consider it a minor annoyance.
