I disagree. I realize it will be a challenge to get right, but since users will be educated about what DNT does or does not do before they make the choice to turn it on, they'll understand that any post-DNT:1 personalization they're seeing is being done in accordance with the DNT rules, and so with limited data retention. In fact, users could come to understand it as a great benefit: they get the personalization, but without their browsing history being accumulated and retained. Best, -David
