As I mentioned in another thread, the biggest winners from this entire GDPR saga are Google and Facebook. Email is control. You get someone's email once, you get to control how often you contact them. You can send them hundreds of messages for next to no cost - as long as they don't hit 'unsubscribe' But if you can't rely on email, what do you turn to? Ads, of course! I get that there are some nasty actors that abuse your privacy. But as a consumer, I've never felt that spam was that big an issue to begin with, at least not big enough to warrant small businesses ceding control and having to rely on Google and Facebook to reach their audiences.
