No, the EU doesn’t mess around. I don’t see any provisions in the GDPR allowing companies to do that.

I guess companies can charge money for services that cost them money, and give you money if you enable certain services.

GDPR doesn't need to reenumerate this. Selling service above cost is already allowed.

I mean as, want to use Messenger? That's $20 a month. Want to let us monetise your messages for ads? We'll pay you $20 a month.

Of course, I don't see Facebook actually doing this, but just food for thought.
