I think not, but if you were to take thousands (maybe millions) of public articles, take the authors names and process the content to extract affiliations, opinions, religion and beliefs and compile a database from that, you are creating a new (and i.m.o. extremely dangerous) database with personal data. IANAL, but I think creating/having such a database would be highly illegal under GDPR.
Good thing the U.S. Federal government doesn't conduct business in Europe.
