It's a philosophical issue, negative liberty vs. positive liberty.
Positive liberty is the distribution of responsibility to the collective (and managing/controlling the collective through central bureaucracy), negative liberty is distributing the responsibility to the individual, self organization, or stateful components in dev lingo.
Your error is that you're set on only one perspective, positive liberty, like many people in europe. GDPR is like that, instead of giving people the tools to protect themselves, and not leak data in first place, and educate them about voting with their wallets, they just take it from the individual and apply it to the collective.
That's the mindset of centralization. It's clear that decentralization efforts fail if you insist on distributing the responsibility collectively.
