He discovered his Google ID, classified as personal data under GDPR, was being traded between at least ten adtech companies in a single hour, which used it to target him. Goog claims onus is on the publisher, yet it is itself sharing and facilitating the data.

He also discovered a second unique tracker that allowed adtech companies to combine info on him, of which there is no mention in Google’s documentation or policies.

Researchers found lots of adtech firms taking advantage of this to share with even more companies, whom even Google may be unaware of. https://t.co/UsjUtqHXUS
