Reject button...but you have to pay to use it.

That is now actually the case in Spain, some pages make you either accept cookies or pay a subscription fee to remove them. For example, 3djuegos makes you either accept cookies for 799 partners, or pay 2€/month to reject them

Yeah, lots of pages are trying to pull that stunt, which isn't legal according to the GDPR. Facebook and many news outlets are trying it too.

I filed a complaint about Facebook with my local data protection agency, which agreed and forwarded the case to Ireland. Well see whether Ireland conforms to the GDPR.

CNIL (French privacy body) ruled that it was legal except for government websites. A lot of French newspapers do it.

Wow... How did they argue that consent was still "freely given"? And also that it is "as easy" to give as it is to withdraw consent?

Relevant quotes:

Consent should not be regarded as freely given if the data subject has no genuine or free choice or is unable to refuse or withdraw consent without detriment.

It shall be as easy to withdraw as to give consent.

They say it's legal, as it is a viable alternative to tracking, but has to be a reasonable amount.

Damn... That is very disappointing.

If people wouldn't just accept it, which unfortunately they will do, this would make me the happiest man.

It would kill so many shitty places because people would only pay for the good ones, oh man I would be so happy less shitty, autogenerated, copy paste stuff on the web and search results and more quality content....

Unfortunately that isn't how it works as most people don't care or don't understand the tracking stuff and just accept.

Yeah, I would love it if instead of accepting cookies people stopped visiting those sites, but most will just accept and move on. I hope the EU rules this as not complying with GDPR or something and they need to revert the changes, but I have no idea if it will actually happen.
