2013年全國碩士研究生招生考試在昨日拉開大幕,考研英語(一)中的第二個閱讀理解引起了廣大Win8用戶的興趣,因為它涉及到Windows8中IE10瀏覽器的"Do Not Track"(DNT) 請勿跟蹤功能。
IT之家現(xiàn)在將題目提供大家,各位Win8粉絲一起作答看看,會被難住么?暫時就不提供答案啦(想找答案也不難...)。
先補充點“請勿跟蹤”的背景知識:
當(dāng)你使用任何瀏覽器訪問網(wǎng)站時,你會自動向該網(wǎng)站提供一些信息,如 Cookie、你的 IP 地址及其他標(biāo)準(zhǔn)計算機(jī)信息。 如果網(wǎng)站中包含由第三方網(wǎng)站提供的內(nèi)容(例如地圖、廣告,或者 Web 信號或腳本等 Web 測量工具),則有關(guān)你的一些信息可能會自動發(fā)送給內(nèi)容提供商。 這種安排有幾個優(yōu)點:例如,你可以方便地訪問第三方內(nèi)容,你所訪問的網(wǎng)站上顯示的廣告可以讓網(wǎng)站免費提供對收費內(nèi)容的訪問。 然而,其結(jié)果可能會對你的隱私造成影響,因為這些內(nèi)容提供商可能跟蹤你對多個網(wǎng)站的訪問。
當(dāng) Internet Explorer 中的“請勿跟蹤”功能啟用時,Internet Explorer將向你所訪問的網(wǎng)站及在這些網(wǎng)站上托管內(nèi)容的第三方發(fā)送“請勿跟蹤”請求,以此通知這些網(wǎng)站你不希望被跟蹤。

An old saying has it that half of all advertising budgets are wasted-the trouble is, no one knows which half . Inthe internet age, at least in theory ,this fraction can be much reduced . By watching what people search for, click on and say online, companies can aim "behavioural" ads at those most likely to buy。
In the past couple of weeks aquarrel has illustrated the value to advertisers of such fine-grained information: Should advertisers assume that people are happy to be tracked andsent behavioural ads? Or should they have explicit permission?
In December 2010 America's Federal Trade Cornmission (FTC) proposed adding a "do not track"(DNT) option to internet browsers ,so that users could tell adwertisers that they did not want to be followed .Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Apple's Safari both offer DNT ;Google's Chrome is due to do so this year. In February the FTC and Digltal Adwertising Alliance (DAA) agreed that the industry would get cracking on responging to DNT requests。
On May 31st Microsoft Set off therow: It said that Internet Explorer 10,the version due to appear windows 8,would have DNT as a default。
It is not yet clear how advertisers will respond. Geting a DNT signal does not oblige anyone to stop tracking, although some companies have promised to do so. Unable to tell whether someone really objects to behavioural ads or whether they are sticking with Microsoft’s default, some may ignore a DNT signal and press on any way。
Also unclear is why Microsoft has gone it alone. Atter all, it has an ad business too, which it says will comply with DNT requests, though it is still working out how. If it is trying to upset Google, which relies almost wholly on default will become the norm. DNT does not seem an obviously huge selling point for windows 8-though the firm has compared some of its other products favourably with Google's on that count before. Brendon Lynch, Microsoft's chief privacy officer, bloggde:"We believe consumers should have more control." Could it really be that simple?
