But David, peu importe whether you come with no header or "unset". The granting of the exception has to be communicated back. And you can only do that by having the UA send DNT:0 that the server can log to satisfy the DPA audit and his own CYA. So if Browsers now refuse to implement DNT:0, the entire thing goes down the drain. Without DNT:0, DNT is not a communication mechanism anymore. All that remains is a privacy fart exhaling DNT:1 headers and servers that comply regardless with some specification that cuts the most obvious erroneous trends. Or am I misunderstanding?

Unless there is a snag I ain't seeing.
