Do Not Track set on over 12% of requests to sample sites in Europe.

Internet Explorer 10 now accounts for over 70% of all requests with DNT set.

The percentage of web requests with the DNT header set in our sample of European websites  is approaching 13%

The percentage of DNT requests coming from Chrome users remains at a much reduced level since version 25 started rolling out towards the end of February. This release disabled the AVG Do Not Track plug-in that could have accounted for the majority of requests with DNT set from Chrome browsers.  

Microsoft's recent upgrade of Windows 7 users to Internet Explorer 10, which has DNT set by default, now gives them by far the highest DNT percentage.

The average across all browsers over the last 30 days is 11.60% and today it reached 12.49%.
