BeReal: The app that won’t take no for an answer (noyb.eu)

Today, noyb has filed a complaint against the social media platform BeReal over the latest “dark pattern” to get consent. When people open the app, they are confronted with a pop-up asking them to say “yes” or “no” to the use of their personal data for advertising purposes. [...] if users click “accept”, they will never see the consent banner again. If they dare to click “reject”, however, the banner will appear every day – until the end of your days.

If you don't know them noyb is a NGO to enforce data protection laws in the EU they are pretty cool.
