Same thing for many websites in France but I didn't find any track if it being challenged in court.

I doubt EU lawmakers planned for this approach to defeat privacy laws, it's definitely against the spirit but this will need an update. In FB case if you pay they 100% still track you anyway, they've been pretty clear they don't care even if they get caught.

Another angle against FB moving to a paid access system would be they could be considered public service due to how omnipresent the service is in day to day life, but lately it's probably more true for their other services like Insta or Whatsapp.
