deeply annoyed by the way the Do-Not-Track header was lied about, when there was browser support for it across the major vendors, so that it could be replaced by this vaporware

great trick to make it impossibly hard for a user to automatedly invoke their GDPR rights to object to processing using technical means, as per article 20 or 21 or something, when the DNT header was already there, implemented and working
