That's exactly what The Washington Post does. They have a free option where "You consent to the use of cookies and tracking by us and third parties to provide you with personalized ads" and a "Premium EU Ad-Free Subscription" with "No on-site advertising or third-party ad tracking". https://www.washingtonpost.com/gdpr-consent/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/gdpr-consent/
