      @jeremiahg @BrendanEich + it would've made more sense for the server to send the DNT header as a promise to abide by acceptable ads policy.

      @BRIAN_____ @jeremiahg AAP is self-annihilating shake-down scheme, lol. No, useless signals and conflict-ridden list curators solve nothing.

      @BrendanEich @jeremiahg They actually improved people's privacy a little bit. The business model could be improved to align with our values.

      @BRIAN_____ @jeremiahg AAP is a self-defeating shake-down. The curator has major principal/agent conflict. As list grows, little is blocked.

      @BRIAN_____ @jeremiahg Part of DNT game-plan at Moz, never realized, was to hope opt-in topped out around 20%, those who don't click ads.

      @BrendanEich @jeremiahg My point is, even though there was lots of doubt about DNT, it was so risk- & effort- free it become a "why not?"

          @BRIAN_____ @jeremiahg Agreed. Too much "Dr. Feelgood" which led down regulatory rathole and got gamed by IE presetting DNT:1. (So go to 2!)

          @ericlaw @BRIAN_____ @jeremiahg Per https://twitter.com/BrendanEich/status/666424304452501504 …, part of (vain) hope was opt-in/user-set DNT would be 20%, measure non-clickers.
