It becomes hard when you try to get away with something that goes against the intent of the law.

And that is exactly what sites are doing now. And there is noone on earth that will ever believe it isn't deliberate.

If the GDPR was really intended to forbid business models which require collecting user data for ad targeting, why wouldn't it have just said that?

Just because X violates GDPR doesn't mean the intent of GDPR is to forbid X.
