> UK to depart from GDPR

Good for them.

Looks like in the UK there will be a lot less time wasting clicking on useless "Accept all cookies or else" disclaimers pop-ups.

Just block them in your ad blocker, because they must be opt-in, by not interacting with them you are asserting your right to not be tracked.

These useless pop-ups are only there because the GDPR wasn't enforced properly. The majority of tracking consent popups you see are not compliant with the regulation. A compliant pop-up should make the opt-out option as easy to use as the opt-in option.
