Hi Mike,

Chrome, Edge, and Safari do not offer native support. DuckDuckGo and Brave
"set" the users' *do-not-sell-or-share* *preference* by default.

There was careful consideration put into not "setting" the preference by
default, to better represent our users' choices and make it as legally
enforceable as possible, but I'm happy to hear any feedback and talk about
it more!

Thanks,
Ben
