Your example where you "want to give your data away to a sketchy website" is not in any way representative of reality when a) the website is as ubiquitous as for instance FB, and thus in no way perceived as sketchy, and b) the user makes no conscious decision to consent (let alone "wants it").

Being glad that he doesn't have the freedom to use the site, thanks to a government law (whether a side-effect of the law or a direct effect is irrelevant, because the law brought it out just the same).
That is, if you're offering such a service that exploits users for their data, then I would never want to use it, so it might as well be blocked, for all I care.
Maybe even desirable if it was, so you don't come across it by mistake and sign up without doing proper diligence.
Freedom of choice is nice, but there's an argument that putting rat-poison in food products isn't ok, even if you label it on the package.
thinking it’s a good idea to give your personal data to FB is not FBs fault, it’s yours.
