About Do Not Track (DNT) and Global Privacy Control (GPC) Enabler

This extension is intended for deployment in organisations that wish to enable DNT (as DNT: 1) by force, but can't because this is not possible via a policy. Instead, forcibly installing this extension via a policy will enable DNT by force. This extension also sets the Global Privacy Control (GPC) flag to true (via client-side JavaScript only). CAVEATS It's possible for any other installed extension to override this one (potentially altering the DNT setting). This can be mitigated by white listing extensions. GITHUB SOURCE This extension is extremely simple (as it should be). You can view its source code here - https://github.com/a449707101729771095/dnt-enabler
