This is GDPR-compliant. They don't have to provide the content for free.

The GDPR basically says that you can either paywall it or not, but you can't provide your content for free only if you accept tracking. Facebook is in hot water right now for this exact thing.

So no, it is not GDPR compliant.

It is, at least CNIL (French privacy authority) ruled as such. Pretty much all French newspaper websites operate like this.

Yeah, my bad, it's not breaking GDPR, it's breaking the much newer DMA, according to a current EU inquiry.
