It is not. But GDPR is sorely lacking enforcement with regard to tracking consent. The last time I checked only 3 cases were brought up (all in spain), and all of those would already have been illegal before GDPR in my non-lawyer opinion.

It's a screw-tightening process. We've only just started, but proper enforcement will surely follow at some point.
