It sounds like you are saying: "I'm not doing anything wrong, so why do I need any privacy".

On the Do Not Track, I think turning it on by default is a bad idea. It gives companies no incentive to follow it and abide by it. (Yes, they have no reason to abide by it right now either). There is no law that says they have to abide by it, but it seems to me they might be more willing to abide by DNT if those that are tracking conscious were to turn it on, rather than it to be turned on by itself. They wouldn't lose as many people to track if it was opt in instead of opt out.
