How is it unacceptable? Facebook has no onus to offer their services free of charge, and nobody is required to use Facebook.

Your options would be pay for it with cash, pay for it with advertising, or don't use the service.

It seems like the EU is trying to say Facebook is a necessary service, which is bogus.

    pay for it with advertising your data

    FTFY.

    That part is not allowed according to the GDPR afaik, the decision about your personal data cannot be artificially linked to something else. They can absolutely show ads, but without using your data.
