They managed to force Google into offering a friendly "reject all", so I doubt others will be able to keep up their dark pattern shenanigans much longer.

The current evasion trend seems to be offering the "choice" between an outrageously expensive subscription and "free with tracking". That tactic needs to be legally challenged still, I think. I doubt it's legal, as there is no real option not to be tracked.

They have every right to paywall their stuff completely, but then I don't want their click-bait content teased in my feeds or search results, ever.
