Vision

Details about instilling user control, transparency, etc.

Execution Plan

Step 1: Do-Not-Track HTTP Header

Consumers need a way to tell web sites what they think of tracking. In its first incarnation, this voice is a DNT header broadcast as consumers' choice to "tell sites I do not want to be tracked." This feature may evolve into something slightly more complex, but the technology begins as a broadcast of what the user wants.
