Walter, With reference to your last point, "to what extent is such consent informed, genuine and meaningful?", I'd like to point out that this group has largely rejected the same principals of meaningful and genuine informed consent when it comes to requirements on agents sending DNT signals. For example, sanctions on browsers and UAs that set DNT for the user by default.
