If you tell the website “no don’t track me” it can’t even remember not to track you (because doing so would be tracking you!) so they have to ask every time.

If you tell the browser no, it would just block the site from storing any info in the browser. It would ask you once only the first time you visit a site, and you can change it whenever in the toolbar. Problem solved, no?

That is absolutely not true.
