When you visit a website, your browser waves around a little flag–the Do Not Track header–as soon as it arrives. That flag tells the website, its advertisers, and other content providers that you don’t want to be tracked. You can see the anonymous ads but most of the times the common ads will not show you up. The measure problem is most of the ad networks yet to respond to the do not track facility. Associated Press the adopter of this policy says only few hours needed for the hardware engineers to implement this facility.
