> On the other hand, my browser's GPC is enabled. It sends the new "do not track" signal. As a result, when I open "show preferences" on a cookie banner, all of them come disabled by default in most cases.
They come as disabled because that is required by GDPR. All settings that are not strictly necessary, consent must be opt-in. Not because you enabled DNT. That's just a flag companies don't care about because they are not legally required to care.
And thise settings originally were all toggled on because ads industry doesn't care
Nope. I don't live in a country covered by GDPR. They used to come enabled before. OneTrust's banners also show a little green text reading "Your signal to opt-out has been honored".
