              <div><br>

              <div>The issue is, that fines under GDPR are quite hard,

                            only apply to registrants using the domain

                                                          The reality is

                                                          domains are
                                                          registered?" 
                                                          That does
                                                          require a lot
                                                          of different

                                                          and it
