Total Fines Imposed by EU Privacy Regulators Dropped in 2024

While the total fines imposed by EU privacy regulators decreased in 2024, this is largely attributed to a single large fine in 2023. U.S. tech firms continue to be the primary recipients of these fines, with regulators focusing on data breaches and AI use. Despite a slight decrease in daily breach notifications, the overall trend remains upward, indicating a continued focus on data protection enforcement.
