Data sharing seems so prevalent, and I would dare say even with EU companies, the chances of getting caught (let alone fined) by the GDPR are pretty slim.

An interesting exercise: If you have a Facebook account, go to this page[0] or this one[1] and see if you even recognize some of the companies that shared data about you. Not to mention gave explicit consent to sharing your data ...

My list includes companies I never gave consent to (e.g. Amazon, Uber), never signed up for or gave any details to (e.g. Robinhood, Triplebyte) and some I have zero clue about, but the name alone sounds dodgy (Opteo, Mindshare Biddable Digital ...).
