The best one now is “Read for free” (give me all the trackers) or join a subscription and you can opt out. Pretty much every news / media site now

That one is honest at least, makes you aware that you're the product.

I respect it, even though courts keep ruling that it's illegal (because it's not freely given consent if you are giving something in return for it)

If this were true, it would be great, but in my experience, paying for a subscription just emboldens companies to collect more data
