I went to one major website and look at their privacy policy page (can’t recall which one now, wish I did), and they explicitly said something to the effect of “yeah we see your ‘do-not-track’ header, but since there’s no law that defines what that means from a technical implementation perspective, we’re just ignoring it”.

I am not exaggerating either, they plainly said (1) we see your flag, and (2) we’re going to ignore it.

And it’s like motherfucker, you’ve got the technical chops to be able to detect the flag and acknowledge as much, but in the same breath are trying to tell my you don’t know what to do about it?!

My ass they don’t. Like Judge Judy used to say: Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.
