    The cookie pop-up for this site gives you 2 options: ‘Accept and continue’ or ‘Decline and subscribe’ which I’ve never seen before and enters a new level of cookie choice abuse. (Accept is for 823 partners, btw)

        The GDPR basically says that you can either paywall it or not, but you can’t provide your content for free only if you accept tracking. Facebook is in hot water right now for this exact thing.

        So no, it is not GDPR compliant.

          It is, at least CNIL (French privacy authority) ruled as such. Pretty much all French newspaper websites operate like this.
