Re: Prototype of Do Not Track Exceptions (ISSUE-151)

Vincent, 

if we reject "on by default" on the basis that it allegedly doesn't 
reflect a user choice, it is even less a user choice if a tool can 
just spawn DNT:1 requests and reject exception requests. 

This will only serve some short-term success for alleged baseline 
protection for the US market only. Not good enough IMHO as it also 
removes the DNT system as a communication system. Without exceptions 
or only one answer (no), this isn't really a tool for the user. But 
what if we create a tool that sends "yes" on every exception 
request? Would that be compliant too?
