@BradRubenstein @briankrebs It's worse. Apple and Google use "_nomap" but Microsoft uses "_optout" (they explicitly say "anywhere" in name), so now you have "_optout_nomap", 13 of 32 available characters of the name stolen.

@elithebearded @BradRubenstein @briankrebs is this yet another case of a stupid idea, implemented by multiple vendors, eventually having to come together to agree to a standard? And blow sunshine up our arse in the process, like they're doing us a privacy solid?

Well, even worse: me choosing to inconvenience myself with that nonsense _doesn't actually address the actual problem in any way_. It's like telling people climate change is their fault for not doing enough recycling.
