No there isn't. There's a "reject all and subscribe" which is not the same thing as a pure "reject all." The law doesn't allow them to impose extra conditions (subscribing) like that.

    The lawyers will say the “Reject” option successfully rejected the cookies on that first click, but if you still want to read the the article you have to pay.

    I can see the coercion issue, where 99% of people are coerced into agreement, but that has yet to be defined as illegal.

    In the meantime I’m going to keep hitting the “reader view” button before the cookie pop up appears.
