      I mean, for one, Do Not Track advocates can't even agree on what exactly respecting Do Not Track entails.

    As a result, Hulu (using profcarroll's example) can have its site respect Do Not Track, but allow partners to. dropbox.com/s/l2i2phlzo1gtevq/Screenshot%202016-05-03%2014.14.37.png?dl=0
