Legal has in no way been able to keep up with AI. Just look at copyright. Internet data is public and the government is incapable of changing this.
Eventually, it will catch up. Whether the punishment offsets the abuse is yet to be seen (I'm not holding my breath).

Incapable or unwilling (paid for by those who want to grab more data)?
I would claim incapable but it doesn't really matter, outcome is the same.
GDPR won't protect you nor will data privacy laws. Most of the world simply doesn't care enough. I wish it were different.
