@BRIAN_____ from the first line of what DNT was supposed to be, http://donottrack.us/ , that never materialized — and was never going to. -
@jeremiahg That's what was great about it. It wouldn't change anything (esp. revenue) but as long as the fight drags on you are the god guy. -
@BRIAN_____ precisely. the part of this that bothers me is it was knowable by all the smart people in advance. just didn’t want to believe. -
@jeremiahg@BRIAN_____ I argued for the short header name, and I wanted PrivacyBadger-like teeth biting violators, not legal/regulatory b.s. -
@jeremiahg@BRIAN_____ Got the short header name, at least :-P. I hear rumblings DNT will make a comeback, rumblings from "back east." -
@BrendanEich@BRIAN_____ make a comeback!? WTF. Some people just do not get what’s going on here. They're getting played hard. -
@jeremiahg@BrendanEich Adblock Plus almost got it right, if acceptable ads policy would have been about privacy.
