Isn't that illegal in the EU?
Yes, you have to opt in. That's why they'll have you check 3 perfectly fine checkboxes, and then hide one like this among them.
Who cares? The corpos are city-states, now. Try to enforce it.
The EU routinely enforces such rules, with fines that are calculated based on company revenue, so that it hurts equally, no matter how large.
