Roy just says that the first party may chose to adapt the service, this doesn't make his definition apply to first parties. I would welcome this option for first parties (without proscribing it), but such deliberate good behavior by first parties will only get a market if they can convey the message back to the user that they do good things. For the moment, in the protocol, first parties can't. We could imagine that the first party can also respond to a DNT=1 request. Again, completely optional... And don't forget that the consent "opt-back-in" thingy is needed for consent in the EU context also for first parties. There the landscape is just different with some needs that will not affect the US discussion. But we shouldn't destroy the consent option as a side effect of the US - focused dispute.
