Sending these requests with TP enabled (i.e. in private browsing) is a plain bug as far as I'm concerned.

  Granted disguising things as a bug is also one of the sneakier and better ways to implement the feature if that was the intent to begin with ;-)

    Given that the discussion in the issue is "hey let's use DNT/tracking protection as a signal to not load this", assume we're looking at a reasonable mitigation here and that this was at worst an oversight.

    It's more that the people implementing and reviewing the feature (cough) didn't expect about:* pages to end up loading frigging Google Analytics.
