Read the OP again. The problem is not with the accept button being greyed out, it’s with the Privacy Policy link taking you to a web page with a 404 error (page not found).
I submitted a ticket about it and got a fast response with the following possible fixes:
__________________________________________________________________
-The quickest thing to try is clicking on the authentication link using a different browser. Please try clicking the link using Internet Explorer, or if you are already using that browser, try a different one such as Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.
-If that does not resolve the issue, please try clearing your browser cache.
-Finally, I’d like for you to check to see if you have JavaScript enabled.

Unfortunately none of them fixed the problem.
There is a link to a privacy policy at the bottom of the 404 web page, but I’ve no idea if that is the same as the policy for the game or only applies to the website.
As it is, I either can’t play the game or have to lie and indicate that I’ve read the privacy policy.
I’m really sorry for those of you who are still experiencing the bug and I don’t want to rub it in, but it just worked for me on the first attempt after the latest (18/9) patch. The only thing I did differently, and I doubt it made any difference, was NOT revive the first single Asura researcher encountered just outside the fort.
Trahearne ‘died’ (needed reviving) 2 or 3 times. I did clear the cave completely before fighting the veteran mob attacking the 2nd research team, but I’d tried that before and still got the bug. So whatever was changed fixed it for me and my thanks to Arenanet (not actually sure whether that’s the developer or publisher) for getting it at least partially sorted out.
“Thank you for your patience on this issue, everyone. As previously mentioned, we’ll be implementing some fixes for this in tonight’s build which should eliminate this block (i.e. the fix isn’t in yet). If you continue to see this after the update tonight, please post here and let us know so that we can investigate further. Thanks again!

So what does “tonight” mean? It’s now September 18th in Europe. I’ve just spent over 30 minutes searching the internet for some kind of patching information/schedule. Having to log on to the game patcher/launcher, search the internet, log into the GW2 forums and then scour individual threads for something as basic as a patch schedule….isn’t good.
When we log on to the game launcher, there’s a ‘news’ window. Please, please use that to give us the basic vital information we need, including patch schedules and notes using Universal Time or something equivalent.
Anyway, thanks for the official post. At least I found some kind of information…eventually.
I tried this story quest again today and had the same problem. All the npc’s except Trahearne (who continues to follow me) remain at the second research team location in the cave and won’t follow me to the southern exit. But why am I (and the rest of you) bothering to write about it here on this forum? There’s no solution, not even an official acknowlegement here. I assume we’ve all submitted a bug report at least once in-game.
My biggest problem is the lack of in-game GMs. In another mmorpg a GM could advance you to the end of the story mission or just flag it as completed. It takes me 20-30 minutes of boring hackfest to get to the point where the quest bugs and I really can’t face doing it yet again.
