Lets say you used a dating app. It explicitly told you "please do not share any personally identifiable information when chatting with any boy/girl with this dating app because your chat will be stored and processed in our server to improve the recommendation algorithm of potential dates and autocompleting your flirty talk to increase your successful rate." at the beginning of the app, but you didn't read carefully and clicked "agree". After a while, you noticed the dating app already stored all your private chat in their server for machine learning.

Although legally I believe that dating app would still be GDPR compliant,
the question is, will you continue using that dating app or not?

Doesn't GDPR require you to be able to request deletion of your PII in any case? No matter what the technical limitations are or if they asked you to not enter any information. It's always their responsibility. At least that's my interpretation.

As per the GDPR, that would need to be opt-in along with a clear text explanation why and for what this is stored. Also, you would not be allowed to only offer an "I agree" button. And it would violate the GDPR principle of data avoidance.

So, not legal.
