I'm wondering if EU data protection rules are fully supposed to be applied by small businesses. Because then it has very hard to properly follow consequences for contact list management (smartphone and paper phonebooks, etc.)

If not it's a loophole that would allow a large data farm to split itself into myriad "small businesses" that all share with each other.

That would either add enough friction to be too expensive, or be too easy for the anti-fraud services to figure out ?
