The news sites I frequent are doing something slightly different though. Some of them are detecting adblockers and give a similar popup saying "either you subscribe or turn off adblocker". This is fine as they don't force you to allow tracking, just seeing ads.
What you described may be out there as well, I just haven't stumbled on it personally.

It’s interesting to see that the money without serving personalized ads is not enough to keep publishers afloat, grim, at least for websites trying to offer ad supported content AND user choice
- toyg 3y agoI've just tested a few (gazzetta.it, repubblica.it, corriere.it) and they all trigger without adblockers. The text explicitly mentions profiling cookies.
