The real reason behind the "annoyance" of the GDPR is its lack of enforcement. The regulation actually outlaws dark patterns in consent forms and should make it as easy to opt out as it is to opt in, but because there hasn't been any enforcement (especially in the UK - the ICO is near-useless from my experience), obnoxious and non-compliant consent flows have been allowed to proliferate.
