Dialog is already standardized in the current GDPR. There is literally an item there which states that Reject consent option should be the same and equally easily accessible as Accept consent option. So basically all dark pattern sites are already criminals. The problem is zero enforcement of the GDPR.

It's standardized in behavior only, it doesn't prescribe which button is where in the dialog etc. But yea for those that actually follow it, it's not a _big_ problem, but it's still an improvement to get an exactly similar dialog. Especially if you can check the [x] reject everything on every site
