Thank you for mentioning this. I feel as if I have to repeatedly jump through those hoops to decline on the very same sites every other day, if not visit.

Surely the GDPR has to have the foresight of dictating that my choice to accept or decline has to be valid for an equal amount of time, doesn't it? If I'm confronted with that popup as long as I'm declining the regulations are worthless.

The GDPR itself really doesn't delve into that kind of detail. Generally, it's up to individuals to lodge complaints with their national data inspectorates regarding this type of thing, who then determine whether some specific procedure is compliant with article 7 (in this case) of the GDPR.
