I disagree wholeheartedly. In many cases the "tick this box to use this app" is not GDPR compliant, and once more enforcement is done, you'll see this pattern diminish or go away. Businesses will eventually transition away from surveillance capitalism, as it becomes increasingly less profitable and it's visibility makes products using it increasingly less appealing to consumers.

Furthermore, GDPR is already in effect in the EU, and multinational companies already have to follow it. There's no reason for us to fail to implement all of GDPR, since so many already have to implement all of it anyways.
