>the request for consent shall be presented in a manner which is clearly distinguishable from the other matters, in an intelligible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language. [1]
On which part of the law do you base your first paragraph? The text that fits for me is all about the consent, not the rejection. It must be easy to understand to which a person consents, but the rejection can be difficult.
There is also:
>When assessing whether consent is freely given, utmost account shall be taken of whether, inter alia, the performance of a contract, including the provision of a service, is conditional on consent to the processing of personal data that is not necessary for the performance of that contract.
Services have to point out that consent is not necessary. If that's usual not done, then this abuse can be ended by notifying the EU. I thus assume that most services offer that notice. Then it is very difficult to argue in court that a user still believed that they didn't mean to give consent. People have to argue for their legal incapability if they want to get out. Who would do that?
The compromise of the law is that people in general mindlessly click ok so that targeted advertising is possible. People who mind tracking can easily opt out. This leaves the ignorant to be tracked. How else should free services be financed? The only other option is making people pay for everything which is ok but a radical shift for the internet.
