@mintycactus No matter if Brave removes it or not, the question is : Is DNT followed by vendors behind? I've tried to add more context here => https://mastodon.social/@ANderagakura/111334483858036981
Regarding Mozilla, today the plan is to set GPC by default
@mintycactus Apple removed DNT from Safari and the other browsers did it as well because it was not used.
Today, GPC is being developed by a large coalition including W3C @w3c. The result is more and more publishers and browser implements it to replace DNT and be aligned with some law (e. g. CCPA etc...)
@Engywuck I still think enabling the user to opt-in / opt-out is the right thing. But to do that, the user needs to be fully informed about every option and the platform has to be enough clear and flexible.
Mozilla announces they will ship GPC (Global Privacy Control) in Firefox 120. Note : the settings will be done by the user choice and not by default which is the case via DuckDuckGo or Brave cc @mozilla @bravebrowser https://groups.google.com/a/mozilla.org/g/dev-platform/c/373F82Jzcjs/m/ImZKgRNIAQAJ
