Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Partial freezing of the User-Agent string (#467)

you should not have to be tech-savvy to prevent tracking or data gathering, companies should not be able to gather data or track you without  CLEAR ad EXPLICIT opt-in and provision to ensure that you at any time can request the removal of all your data they hold. It is unfortunate that the approach of companies is that once you allow them to gather data that the data gather belongs to them.  Companies at best have permitted use of data from the user when the opt-in and once cancel so it the permission to use it. if companies want to keep that data when a user opts out, there should be an explicit request from a company to the user if they are permitted to keep using already captured data.

All of this should be implemented with the intended user being, a none-tech person and is easy and correctly displayed of information.
