I doubt the EU would look kindly upon this. Allowing people to opt out of personalised ads is done for a good reason, and punishing people who opt out like this sounds like a very hostage-like "or else" kind of tactic.
Should facebook go through with this, it will be interesting to see what happens.
knowing EU they would be against and just add a rule that every app should have ability to opt out in EU in like 2 years :D
Which is still better than the majority of other countries.
In the US they even encourage tracking...
It's not all that different from the "Accept cookies or pay"-walls that news outlets have implemented in the last couple of years.
