I don't expect many sites to respect the header in general but selectively ignore the header for only Epiphany users, because sites don't care about Epiphany. :) Anyway, we are moving towards private-by-default, rather than making the user think about it and choose whether to be tracked or not. And I am turning on adblock by default right now :) which is rather more serious for the advertising companies, IMO. -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
