Is the issue here a lack of “Reject All” button? Or strictly the number of partners?
Superleroy•7m ago
I read the complaint and it seems to have nothing to do with the reject all button and is only about transparency and informed consent. They state that you cannot reasonably read all those privacy policies and thus you also cannot give informed consent.

At least that is how I understood it

mschild•7m ago
Probably both.

If I understand it correctly giving informed consent for over 1700 tracking partners of a single page isn't realistic. You as a single person cannot be expected to truly understand what it is you are agreeing to when you click accept.

Nursie•4m ago
The issue is that even if you click "Accept" there is no reasonable way to infer that the user has given informed consent, because becoming informed would likely take days or weeks.

As such the conditions for data sharing are not met.

jcul•4m ago
I've seen similar on some android apps I think, where it will ask you if you consent to sharing data with partners or something similar.

When you say no there's a huge list of partners you have to disable one by one, it's probably 15 minutes of work to go through them all.

I can't think of an example app right now, but usually it's on first install or something like that. Not sure GDPR applies to apps though.
