> If they don't make money, then why would they need to collect and share data about their users?

If you've ever developed a website you should absolutely know why you might need to collect and share data. Google analytics is considered sharing btw.




Perhaps I wasn't explicit, but by data I mean personal data, which is what GDPR is all about. While the desire to collect general statistics about site usage is obvious, I still do not see any reason to collect personal data.
