I'm not a lawyer but I thought GDPR didn't prevent that. It adds a lot of restrictions on how they can use those emails for how long, but not a complete ban on explicit sharing of emails.

If you read it very carefully, and then behave very carefully, you can comply with the law. Orrrrrr you can just not bother for your first pass, simply block the EU for now, and release it for them after you go and clean it up later.
Yup that's what's been happening with many models. US first and Europe comes a few months after once they double checked everything and made sure the paperwork is in order.
Easily circumventes with a VPN though, most just limit by location, not busy account data.
GDPR may not prevent it explicitly, but around the world GDPR has a chilling effect on many businesses, small and large, that often results in longer launch delays to covered countries while armies of lawyers double and triple check everything in fear of large fines.
