And, an "accept" holds for seemingly till the end of time, while a "I don't accept" is valid not much more than the mouse button click echoes through my room before you stand before the dialog box yet again, contemplating why you don't do something more useful with your life.

Even worse, nowadays there's only "accept" and "maybe later"

  Hell I seen one yesterday that was only 'accept' or 'subscribe to newsletter' with the 'not accept' being linked to the 'cancel' button of the subscribe to newsletter popup. Which you had to click into first.

  That's a classic Google move. Tried to deny some google apps access to fine location, and it would ask at every single opportunity, it was so easy to accidentally enable it as well, which I guess is the point, wear you down until you press the wrong thing or just give in.

Thank you for mentioning this. I feel as if I have to repeatedly jump through those hoops to decline on the very same sites every other day, if not visit. Surely the GDPR has to have the foresight of dictating that my choice to accept or decline has to be valid for an equal amount of time, doesn't it? If I'm confronted with that popup as long as I'm declining the regulations are worthless.

  The GDPR itself really doesn't delve into that kind of detail. Generally, it's up to individuals to lodge complaints with their national data inspectorates regarding this type of thing, who then determine whether some specific procedure is compliant with article 7 (in this case) of the GDPR.
