I'm fairy sure a mix privacy & contract laws in my country would hold companies subject to this as its stands if you didn't agree to allow them to do it in a EULA.
Because if I'm not mistaken by accepting the request you are agreeing to contractual obligations... so the server has to accept your contract to engage in transactions... the server can choose to accept or deny this transaction... by default accepting the contract.
Of course you would have a good defence against this a well, so agreed you'd need it standardised to make it a real threat against a company in court. Would be interesting to see played out in court TBH.
Also if stances are made like this then changes will never manifest, because its close to useless now doesn't mean it won't become a foundation for something later.
