Again. "Violators on users privacy" in what way? You present this as if it's a fact, it's not it's an interpretation. That's the lie here.
You are still using them one of the biggest users of personal data your ISP and that's a service you pay for.
Don't pretend you are stating facts when you are just stating you personal opinion.
> Most digital companies wouldn't exist if they weren't allowed to use the data.
GDPR does not deny you the right to use user data, it regulates usage. This is such a ridiculous strawman that it doesn't even classify as a fallacy, it's just simply a lie.
> Are you going to stop using all these services that track you some way or another?
(I have stopped using many of the services you mentioned, but you're actually touching on the reason why regulation is necessary.) It is unreasonable to tell the general public they should stop using the internet if they want to maintain their privacy and dignity. And that's why there need to be regulations to provide protections for the general public when using a technology that is so central to the modern world.
