Not supporting GPC (the DNT successor) directly contradicts the "respecting users" marketing fluff. I suspect the main reason why there is a "reject all" button is that Cloudflare folks rightly figured out that they are too big to get away with not providing one. Otherwise noyb.eu will say hello. OneTrust etc. are doing the same, there's nothing more user respecting about this solution.
If Cloudflare is serious about privacy here, they should at least respect GPC and not provide customers with an option to disable it.
- yoavm 3y agoWe are definitely planning to support GPC. I'm not sure how not supporting contradicts respecting users, considering that neither Chrome, Firefox nor Safari supports it (without enabling experimental flags). We really want to see GPC succeed, but we haven't prioritized supporting it because it doesn't seem like it's going to benefit many users, yet.

Otherwise noyb.eu will say hello. (Disclaimer: I helped deliver this feature) We have never even for a minute considered not providing the "reject all" button. It was a user-respecting project from its conception. We actually consider being user-friendly a competitive advantage rather than something that we'd do out of fear of Noyb. For some context, I'm a co-founder of https://www.internet-czas-dzialac.pl/ https://www.internet-czas-dzialac.pl/, which can be described as a "Polish noyb" ;)
