I filled 2 years ago a few complaints. It took over 1 year for an answer. Basically nothing happened.

The Data Protection Authority are underfunded and understaffed. They try the best with their resources.

Can't we fund these authorities with the fines they generate?

Not the best way, I know, but better than nothing.

That would create a perverse incentive inevitably leading to corruption.

It creates an incentive (to identify entities breaking the law), but I don't see how this is perverse. It's the desired result.
