Suggested change
Fixed a duplicated Deutsche Wohnen GDPR fine entry that had incorrectly appeared attributed to both the Baden-Wuerttemberg data protection authority (LfDI BW) and the Berlin authority (BlnBDI) as if they were two separate fines.
Why this is better
The same EUR 14.5M Deutsche Wohnen GDPR fine was incorrectly listed twice, once misattributed to the Baden-Wuerttemberg authority (LfDI BW) and once to the correct Berlin authority (BlnBDI), as if they were two separate fines rather than one.
