DNT was supposed to be that until Microsft decided to make it on by default pretending it to be a big privacy move on their part. Because it was no longer a user choice advertisers decided it was no longer reasonable to honor it. So they just ignore it most of the time. And thus DNT became completely obsolete.

  To be honest, users don't really care if you honour DNT. So it's best to just ignore that part of the spec.
