True, but corporations are the most clear and immediate threat and making it sufficiently (!) expensive for them does discourage bad behaviour.
it does not discourage anything. illegally designed cookie notices? the dozen tracking providers on all the websites? digital public passport passes that track your habits, but never told you about it, not even at purchase?
