Websites should only track if DNT is 0. Null means no consent, 1 means rejection.

Consent has to be given, not assumed.

Consent does indeed have to be given, not assumed. But "legitimate interest" cookies do not need consent

And every crappy app and website has 300 "legitimate interest" cookies 🤑🤮
