>( an IP address alone doesn't qualify ) You are wrong. You need to brush up on GDPR. An IP address, metadata, cookie ID, "online identifiers", etc are considered personal data by GDPR, all data that is collected by virtually every single website, service, or app in the world at some level, either directly through an analytics platform, web font, external library, social engagement, ads, affiliate, input form, third party login services, or even the server itself. That is in addition to names, addresses, phone, email addresses, location, social media, health data, etc.
