Cookie consent by scrolling doesn't seem like a legitimate way to obtain user consent.

I mean, it's no worse than the standard antipatterns, which are designed to be so easy to click "accept" and so hard to follow the "don't accept" flow. None of them are about coming to an agreement with the user; all of them are about obtaining as much data as possible. Until the EU mandates a handwritten letter to obtain permission for tracking cookies, these demonstrations of bad faith will be our friends on the internet.
