  I'm 99% sure that a US website is perfectly within their right to deny EU citizens for whatever reason. If it was EU based however they would be violating the GDPR. There's a lot of US sites that just give a HTTP 451 (unavailable for legal reasons) for people from the EU.

    I think that’s why the 451 gets around that by not even offering the service at all! Though I had to assist a relative in EU that couldn’t click the “unsubscribe” button on a marketing email because that too led to a 451!

    It's illegal, consent must be freely given. Either the site must be completely inaccessible to EU citizens (no matter whether user will consent to cookies or not) or it must be accessible even after rejecting consent, there is nothing in between. Accessible site only after giving consent is just plain blackmailing. https://www.whitecase.com/insight-alert/websites-must-remain-accessible-when-rejecting-tracking-cookies-dutch-data-protection https://www.whitecase.com/insight-alert/websites-must-remain...
