The `noai` `X-Robots` directive makes the same mistake as the "Do Not Track" HTTP request header, in that it's a vague polite request with incentive for compliance. Crawlers generally respect <span translate="no">robots.txt</span> because they get caught and banned if they don't; indexers respect `noindex` because it prevents duplicate, internal, and shallow pages from getting indexed.

The <abbr>TDM</abbr> Reservation Protocol is less like "Do Not Track" and more like Global Privacy Control: observance of the <abbr>TDM</abbr> Reservation Protocol could be a way to qualify for an exception under the European Union's "CDSM Directive". It could have a clear legal meaning and legal incentive, which gives companies a very good reason to respect it. After the <abbr>TDM</abbr> Reservation Protocol finalizes and is shown to work, I may adopt it.
