Is your contention that if I click 'no' on the GPDR nag screen it won't sell/harvest my data? The few times that I've looked at the T&Cs more closely, they simply say that some cookies are 'essential' for the website and that I can't opt out from them. I took that to mean that clicking anything was accepting their T&Cs to some degree- hence, I refuse to click any GPDR nag screens ever.
If clicking 'no' is effective, it raises the question of why can't that just be done automatically for me by my browser, sparing me the obnoxious nag screens

The whole thing is a show of bad faith.
