As a clarification (as these concerns have mainly been raised by the LWG): both the licence and GDPR issues are a concern in the case of a "no-deal BREXIT", if there is a orderly withdrawal, these are much less a concern. The UK legislation in both areas would be/is compatible with the EU in any case, just the necessary bi-lateral agreements would be missing to make things actually work cross-border. 2.5 years ago I said there was no need to be concern, as nobody would be so insane to not arrange for these areas of regulation to continue as is, alas it seems as if I was wrong.
