And if you tried to sketch out what should be in that EULA, you'd probably want to know:

- What data is being collected about you

- What they're doing to keep that data reasonably secured

- Who to contact should have you detect some security issue

- How to request that the company stop using your data

.....and we've reinvented the GDPR.

Well, GDPR requires that you do those things. A clear EULA that says we don't do any of those things so if you don't like it don't use our service would still be illegal under GDPR, right?

No, that wouldn't be illegal. Please can you point to the bit of GDPR which you think would make it illegal?
