Somebody has been fined for reporting illegal parking to the city. Yes really, they say he has no legitimate interest in reporting people who park on the sidewalk in a way that's endangering pedestrians.

Go to https://www.enforcementtracker.com, which collects and publishes GDPR fine information. Type in "Private Individual" as a filter in the "Controller/Processor" column. I see twenty-ish results, mostly from Spain. My Spanish is rusty and non-technical, but I think some of those fines are about posting videos to social media.

Dunno where you're getting that idea. Per Article 2 "Material Scope" (https://gdpr-info.eu/art-2-gdpr/):

> 2. This Regulation does not apply to the processing of personal data:

> (c) by a natural person in the course of a purely personal or household activity;

There is an exemption for private individuals conducting their personal affairs. But it still applies to private individuals acting in a public space. Article 4 also reinforces that a Controller may be a natural person.
