Maybe, but ad prices going down, Amazon cutting affiliation commissions, clickbait race to the bottom etc. has happened over a period of the last ten years anyway and is unrelated to GDPR. It hasn't exactly resulted in quality content, or financial stability for content creators, either.

A situation where your average page contains tens of tracking scripts wasn't sustainable much longer.

If anything, GDPR should be seen as an opportunity to disrupt the quasi-monopolistic online ad market.
