No, explicitly not. That is in my opinion one of the great points of the GDPR legislation. Mandatory consent is not consent at all and hence void and websites have to accept "no" as the default answer.
- ianai 7y agoOk so everything you said, and endow people with property rights over their data. They should be able to lease access to this data to websites in turn for goods and services. They should also be able to sue for misappropriation of this property like all other property. Etc etc.

Then you get back to same problem as before: "Allow us to spy on you or pay $$$". Instead privacy is treated as right and you can simply say "no, neither of those". Note that this does not say anything about ads. It is still perfectly legal to show ads, just the whole privacy invasion on top of it is excluded.
