RE: tracking-ISSUE-215: data hygiene approach / tracking of URL data and browsing activity [Compliance June]

Rigo,

Incorrect - no permitted use is needed as aggregate scoring is "not tracking" in that there is no retention of a user's cross-site browsing history in this case.  DNT compliance is removing the linkage between browsing activity and a user/device.

Opt-outs are great, please use mine! :) So you need a permitted use to ignore the DNT signal and only listen to other opt-outs. But why would you claim compliance to DNT here in the first place? I don't understand the goal of the permitted use here within the DNT concept.
