There are multiple ways to satisfy the requirements, but that's hardly Kafkaesque. It's simply convenient for the ad business to pretend the rules are incomprehensible, because they'd really rather not understand them. I'm sure there are real problems with the GDPR (e.g. perhaps how and particularly where it's enforced, and how it favors large business over small, and that there aren't enough practical exemptions for small-scale data collection), but the fact that there's no reasonable and clearly legal loophole for the ads/tracker-business isn't one of them. That's not Kafkaesque, that's by design.
