So there is no change to a situation of today. If AdChoices is in the US and treats everybody according to its domestic rules, that should be fine. EU citizens shouldn't reveal their origin only to get a DNT:1 treatment with DNT:unset. Because you get the same treatment if you care to enable DNT:1 without revealing origin and this way you get equal treatment world wide. --Rigo
