DuckDuckGo hardcodes a list of domains for which the GPC header is always included. Those domains are the ones users can use to test the GPC setting: Android/app/src/main/java/com/duckduckgo/app/globalprivacycontrol/GlobalPrivacyControlManager.kt Lines 37 to 41 in e581821 private val headerConsumers = listOf ( " nytimes.com" , " globalprivacycontrol.org" , " global-privacy-control.glitch.me" )

However, this setting is only useful if it actually works on all domains, not tricking users into thinking it's working but it doesn't.
