The server can always return nothing in which case the browser can not assume his DNT signal worked. I want to avoid the situation of the bork-browser, where the server discriminates against a certain browser only and where there are browser counter-measures and the creation of a conflict finally endangering interoperability. The way out is clearly signaling. As for shades and prompts, you can't really prevent that as a service. A browser is free to react in many ways to DNT status reports. I will respond to Rob in separate email. Rigo
