Why we need a sound Do-Not–Track standard for privacy online

A blog post from Nelly Kroes, from European Commission
including things about the Do Not Track

"Why we need a sound Do-Not–Track standard for privacy online"

    This is important because I am not pushing for any DNT 
    standard, but for a standard that I could endorse, for 
    a standard that is rich enough, in substance, to signal 
    that users’ right to online privacy is respected by 
    companies who implement it. This is not a simple task, 
    in particular as the underlying legal privacy 
    frameworks differ across jurisdictions, and I am happy 
    to see that the W3C has assembled an impressive group 
    of experts to get it done.
