I encounter recaptcha a lot and often it violates the gdpr. I believe this to be one of the positives of the gdpr. Things usually go as follows:

- something gets abused

- a solution is needed to stop the abuse

- the 'techies' implement recaptcha and they are not aware of the regulatory implications

- it's such a small thing that it often get's overlooked in internal audits

Google fonts from their cdn is another.

Landing page Youtube videos is another but a little bit more well known.

The user should be warned so they can decide if they want to give Google everything; how else would they know?
