I've stopped going to Ars Technica exactly because their cookie pop-up lets me know that Condé Nast wants to share my data with at least (according to the popup) 159 partners.

They have so many "partners" that their cookie popup comes with a search bar.

56 of their "partners" want my precise geolocation data!

16 "partners" want to actively scan my device!

101 "partners" want to "match and combine data from other data sources" (I can't disable or object to this)

102 "partners" want to identify my device. I also can't object to this.

The only way I can really object is to close the tab, so that's what I do.

Isn't it too late by then?

Legally no, they can't store his data if he doesn't click yes.
