The user entered  http://www.nynyhotel.com/
and finally reaches http://www.newyorknewyork.com/

The user doesn't know

* he/she went through http://clk.atdmt.com/
* if it was a simple redirect (just like a proxy would do) or a tracking trick.
* if this tracking, in a more global context, is aggregating his/her behavior across sites.

It entirely depends on your expectations. :) 
This is entirely contextual to the user perspective.
Some users will freak out, some will not care. 

Basically what is the issue we are trying to solve for users?
I guess it is what Bjoern was asking previously too.
The DNT:1 is advertised as a tool for users when it seems to be a tool for servers. :)
