Whats new in Firefox 5.0 says that Do-Not-Track Header has been moved to increase the discoverability.. Does this mean that there would not be option to enable do-not-track anymore? Does this sacrifice privacy? or also it means that you will be always locatable (in general or personally)? - Thanks.

Réiteach roghnaithe

You can find it in another location.

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Tracking: "Tell web sites I do not want to be tracked"

Selecting the "do-not-track" setting will only make Firefox send a specific HTTP header (DNT=1) to a web server.
It is up to the server to do something with that request.
