Major news outlets doing it are willing to argue it is okay. They are a membership only news publication with a free viewing option in their books.

Iirc it boils down to the fact the user still has a choice.

Either way your interpretation of GDPR and several major news outlets clearly differ, and i would bet my house on them having access to better legal advice than you.

or simply betting on the fact that GDPR is selectively enforced(and i think that's the biggest problem with it)
