The reject option would be leaving the banner up wouldn't it?

Does that break the law?

In this case the footer banner is not accessible with an open cookie banner. E.g. German law requires the website owner to have a legal link to the website representative.

In this case, only by consenting to the cookies I could have access to those links.

You can’t use the site/service as well as the person accepting then? So it’s obviously in violation
