Yes. Third parties === companies if you have read my entire comment. Now that you mention this... if you are like me and read privacy policies, you know that there is nothing stopping a company/third party to sell those data that they got from Google to another third party. And in turn that third party to another third party in an endless chain. We have no idea. There are no laws and policies in places except the policies that are set out by companies like Google, Facebook and Amazon (Ironically these are policies set out in place IN RESPONSE TO THEIR THIRD PARTY GETTING HACKED OR MAYBE SUPPLY CHAIN ATTACKS).
This means your behavioural data is like covid. It can be spread to endless entities. Not the initial number of people Google sold the data to. This means... Google sells to 100 entities -> Those of the each hundred entities CAN share/sell this data to 100 entities each and on it goes. These are 100's and 100's of companies apart from their practices (shady or otherwise) which needs to protect your behavioural data from getting hacked and data breaches. And for what? Because I searched "What is NFT?" ? Ridiculous and wasteful.
