Seems like it would be easy to fix this situation even without changing the law.

- Forbid browsers from sending the DNT header automatically. They may ask the user. - Consider the DNT header valid consent or withdrawal of consent. - Forbid websites from asking for consent if the header is set.

Why forbid them from setting it automatically? Tracking is meant to be opt-out.

Other than that yes this would be the solution.
