Comment #7 on issue 27111 by j...@chromium.org: deny prefetches at site
owners' option: use.txt and page markup
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=27111
Marking as status available. Priority 3.
Since this depends on an implementation of content prefetching, I'll also
mark it as
blocked on the bug 13505 (it doesn't make sense to add restrictions on
prefetching
when we currently don't have content prefetching, which effectively
restricts such to
non-existence).
In general, content prefetching should only be done when the probability of
needing
the content is high (meaning there is arguably almost no burden to the
server), and
the client (and connection) can beneficially support the additional
bandwidth
utilization. It will be interesting to see if this emerges as a problem
(but I
suspect it will only be a problem if the feature is mis-implemented).
