He misrepresents the GDPR a bit. At least in theory, the GDPR is meant to restrict collection, not just how the data is used and stored. It has a big loophole in allowing for vague "business interests" to be taken into consideration whether collection is legal or not. More than that, the GDPR clearly establishes ownership of PII and asserts that owners have the right to request information about how their data is handled as well as demand that data be destroyed, exported or corrected.
