Should I Not Use Do Not Track?

Question

Apparently only 10% or less of users use DNT, which makes it a nice way to track you around the web.And considering only a handful of sites actually bother respecting it (google doesn't give a fuck, for instance) + the fact I already have an adblocker...Should I just not enable it?

I use Brave, which comes with amazing defaults to block ads and trackers. But even Brave seems to have DNT turned off by default.I have it turned off. I suspect having DNT turned on would actually help with fingerprinting (like you said, only 10% of people have it on, so it's easy to narrow you down).
