So P3P is flawed and IE implements a flawed standard. Granted.

Google is still using this flaw to override the user setting "Do not allow 3rd party cookies" to allow themselves to track users.

There is no "technically" about this, they've misused the standard to override user settings.

Not exactly. The user setting is inaccurate, as it actually should have said "Do not allow 3rd party cookies, except for those from sites which have a code that indicates they aren't tracking cookies or a code we don't understand."

Instead it says "Third Party Cookies" with choices of Accept, Block, or Prompt.

That's exactly what they do.

No, it doesn't.

You sound as if you have researched it, but you seem to be trying to mislead folks by spreading nonsense.

Hmm....you act as if you have looked at it, but you haven't. You simply lie.
