Interaction with the individual user agent cannot be required, otherwise a smartphone operating system, for instance, cannot offer a system-level control to configure DNT for all the browsers and all applications that may be running on the system that support the system setting, unless the user confirms using the system level setting individually for each app, as I would read the text above anyway. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Am Badedeich 7 · Telefon: +49(0)160/4415681 · http://www.bjoernsworld.de 25899 Dagebüll · PGP Pub.
