Detectable opt outs would likely mean that more users get hassled. * If opt out is detectable, sites can check what other features are supported by the user agent, identify likely opted-out users, and block those users from seeing content until they enter an email address. (This doesn't have to be 100%, can be somewhat inaccurate like today's ad blocker detector scripts.) * If opt out is undetectable, the site would instead have to try to get an email address from all users or none of them -- which means the site could lose total revenue depending on how many users bounce instead of giving up their email. -- GitHub Notification of comment by dmarti Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/patcg/docs-and-reports/issues/49#issuecomment-1793204785 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
