Re: Deciding Exceptions (ISSUE-23, ISSUE-24, ISSUE-25, ISSUE-31, ISSUE-34, ISSUE-49)

Thanks for taking up this thought, Rigo.

I am still quite concerned about the exceptions of frequency capping and 
market analysis. It seems to me that these exception will function as 
green light for third parties to continue several ways of tracking users 
would most probably not expect with DNT:1. With extensive exceptions for 
those two areas I worry that few things would change regarding the cross 
site data collection.

Although in my opinion purposes like frequency capping should not be 
applicable to DNT:1 users at all, I can agree to a less restrictive 
consensus like session based frequency capping. The time frame we talked 
about in Brussels - up to 6 months depending on the camgaign - appears 
far far too long for this purpose. Hardly anyone remembers the ads 
he/she has seen the last week, let alone last month.

The exception of market analysis/market research is not really clear to 
me in detail. Hopefully, we can talk about this in the call today.
