30 Oct 2025 MM Grupp OÜCinema chain MM Grupp (Apollo) took over Forum Cinemas without clearance – 7.5 million EUR €7.51m
In 2021, the Estonian parent company of Apollo cinemas acquired control of Forum Cinemas Lithuania before the notified merger had been cleared and integrated the cinemas in Vilnius and Kaunas into its network, even though the Konkurencijos taryba (Lithuanian Competition Council) had provisionally expressed competition concerns. Fine of 7,507,930 EUR (0.8% of consolidated worldwide turnover) and obligation to end the infringement within six months. Source: archived copy of the press release.
No implementation before clearance: restructurings and leases can also constitute prohibited early implementation.

2 Jul 2024 Vinted, UABVinted pays 2.39 million EUR over ‘shadow banning’ and handling of erasure requests €2.39m
Acting on complaints from France and Poland, the Valstybinė duomenų apsaugos inspekcija (Lithuanian State Data Protection Inspectorate, VDAI) found that the second-hand platform rejected erasure requests when users did not state a ‘specific reason’ under Art. 17 GDPR, throttled users without their knowledge through ‘shadow banning’ and could not demonstrate how it handled access requests. Fine of 2,385,276 EUR. Source: archived copy of the press release.
Covert restrictions on users are non-transparent – and erasure requests must not fail on formalities such as a requirement to give reasons.
