Web tracking is pervasive: the average popular website incorporates over fifty third-party tracking mechanisms. And web tracking is unpopular: a majority of Americans oppose the practice.

Both the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Commerce have signaled support. This talk explores central questions in the ongoing web privacy debate: * What information do third parties collect about users? * What technologies do third parties use to track users? * What limits does the online advertising industry's self-regulation impose? * What should Do Not Track prohibit? * Who should enforce it, and how? * What would the economic impact be? * Could it actually happen?
