Pretty harsh words here too, but not focused on the amount.
Pretty damning stuff (emphasis mine):
"On 5 December 2022, the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) ordered the DPC to quantify how much revenue Meta had generated by infringing the GDPR, and to factor that sum in to its fine. However, the DPC simply ignored the unlawful revenue made by Meta and claimed that "the Commission is unable to ascertain an estimation of the matters" and that it is therefore "unable to take these matters into account". This is despite having the power to demand such information from Meta under Article 58(1) GDPR."
