That's the intention. The trackers serve as a signature that is used to track the flow of information and build up a shadow profile on you and whoever clicked the link. If you didn't use a VPN, Google now knows you personally are the sort of person to share this information, and will use that to feed you more seductive propaganda.

    UTM tracking are basicly just used to know the origin of the link, however they do not store personal data in it at all. So Google does not know, if I or you shared that link.

    The tracking mainly works by just having Google Analytics in pretty much every website and Google reading out browser fingerprints.
