There is not a problem with protecting personal data. It is the problem of laying down laws in a scattergun manner which ties everyone in knots.

Maybe you should talk to one of the small organisations affected by this and see how happy they are with the GDPR - if they even understand it.

Nothing in your link supports your wilder assertions and no one would be more surprised than me if ever you did find such a link!! If anything, that link shows what a sensible piece of legislation it is as the excerpt below highlights. I know many small organisations who don't fear progress and know the benefits of having legislation appropriate for the 21st century without over-engineering a solution.
