Collecting data is not against GDPR. GDPR is about consent, processes etc.

Whether or not this is compliant depends on the way their installer is set up.

But "default" is precisely not asking for consent. One of the thing GDPR asks, is for websites to explicitly ask for the user permission to allow cookies
