I came here, because of the conflict that may arise if the site is not honoring DNT and the user sends DNT. Or if the site wants to track and the user is still "unset". Or if you want to "opt-back-in". How does the user interaction work. Do I opt-back-in by default in my configuration? > > It's a good idea to spec out how the UA communicates with web servers, and > makes sense to provide non-normative guidance or examples about > implementation techniques, but not normative language dictating how user > agents help users make choices. I think we are talking passed each other (with David and JC too). Probably because I sound like I'm in trenches that I'm really not wanting to be in. I am not taking about an OK button for every cookie. We are trying to get to the opposite and only bother the user if it makes sense. But to be aware, a site may want to trigger such a prompt. Because I don't believe that browser manufacturers can anticipate every possible situation in their configuration or implementation. I was talking about such an option. Best, Rigo
