In the EU under GDPR, users must be given a genuine choice, meaning they should be able to refuse consent without facing negative consequences such as being redirected or denied access to the service. Creating the illusion of choice by asking for consent and then redirecting users to another site if they decline is a violation of the principles of transparency, fairness, and freely given consent outlined in the GDPR.

I doubt anyone is forced to allow access per the GDPR.

That's likely not the point. The point as I read it is that if this is in any way targeted at EU users, then it is clearly in breach of GDPR.
