      Gdpr seemed like it was designed to ban this, but lately companies (especially German ones?) seem to be trying this. I guess it won’t be resolved without a big, slow, expensive court case.

      I keep seeing this a lot lately. I also saw one that had the style from the image (accept all or refuse maybe), but if you hit refuse, a second one popped up that said:

      [pay to read]

      Or

      [read for free]

      I opened it in private mode and read for free just let me into the article. I’m guessing it accepts all.
