The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) continues causing hefty fines and penalties for businesses and organizations across European countries even two years after coming into force. According to data presented by Buy Shares, the United Kingdom tops the list of the most expensive data breach penalties with €132.7 million in total value of GDPR fines, more than German and Italy combined. Cumulative Value of GDPR Fines Hit €344 Million, a €119 Million Increase in 2020 The primary reason for such a high cumulative value of GDPR fines in the United Kingdom is the data breach penalty imposed by the UK’s data protection authority, ICO, to Marriott International. In November 2018, the American multinational company was fined with €110.4 million after reporting a cyber incident that exposed nearly 340 million guest records. Last week, the ICO fined British Airways €22 million for failing to protect the personal and financial details of more than 400,000 of its customers, the second-largest GDPR fine in the United Kingdom. The penalty is considerably smaller than the €204.6 million that the ICO initially said it intended to issue back in 2019 after the Magecart group used card skimming to collect the personal and payment information of British Airways` customers.

Khabib Nurmagomedov leaves UFC as the undisputed lightweight champion following his victory over Justin Gaethje.  The Eagle almost immediately upstaged his own exploits by confirming his retirement in his post-match interview.  A triangle choke had overcome Gaethje and as it turned out, that would be Khabib's last action in the Octagon.  It's astonishing to think there were concerns about his fitness going into the clash, not least because of his dramatic weight change in the days preceding it.  Dana White also confirmed he had fought Gaethje with three broken bones in his foot.  However, the emotional scenes after the fight spoke not only of the 32-year-old exiting a sport in which he is now seriously being considered among the greatest of all time.  It's been a deeply troubling year for Khabib, who lost his father and trainer in July.  Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov passed away earlier this year due to coronavirus complications after a series of health problems.  It was no surprise then, that his son paid tribute with his first Instagram post since the Gaethje fight.  "When ALLAH with you, nobody can broke you, nobody," he wrote.  "Thanks Father for everything, you teach all my life, may ALLAH grant you the highest Paradise."  Addressing Gaethje after the fight, he also addressed the loss of his father and praised the American, whose one request ahead of their encounter was that his parents could be present.  "Be close with your parents. You never know what will happen tomorrow," he said live on BT Sport.  It's a real tragedy that Abdulmanap couldn't be there to see his son hit 29-0. Everyone saw what it meant to him a year ago when Khabib beat Dustin Poirier.  That relationship has been central to the lightweight's career.  Khabib confirmed he was retiring because of a promise he had...
