You're spot on with your observation in the medical industry. I've been researching stem cell treatment for a condition i have and the impact regulations (which i fully support btw) have had is that now there are a bunch of hucksters and a bunch of legit businesses offering stem cell treatments and it is practically impossible to separate the two. Despite being well versed in reading scientific papers and internet research in general it is impossible for me to separate fact from fiction. Added to that there is also a significant number of people spreading FUD which adds unwanted noise not only in the marketing side but also on the flip side making it all the more difficult to decipher the landscape.
Related to GDPR i can definitely see a similar situation developing where large entrenched player leverage it to gain an unfair competitive advantage against startups who could threaten then in their market, using the same FUD tactics. This is a silent killer which will wipe out grass roots innovation in Europe.
