Just like those “we value your privacy” cookie banners that don’t give you the option to reject all. If they truly valued my privacy, they would give me that option instead of having me toggle off 500000 “partners” one by one in the hopes I accidentally skip one. Bastards.
I just decide that any site doing that doesn’t really have anything meaningful to provide and has mostly copy-pasted content from actual resource-providing websites, with added SEO.
So I just close the site most of the time.
So far it has paid off. I tend to find more sites that give information that was actually written by someone knowledgable about the field.
Thinking I should start making my own list, considering search engines are probably never going to make those easier to find.
Those aren’t compliant. The reject all needs to be as prominent as the accept all option without any additional clicks. So many sites get it wrong it’s insane!

I like the one that takes 30 seconds to deny all but accepts all instantly.
Most transparent dark pattern

If they get away with it, they very much got it right
