Being aware of being in a prisoner dilemma doesn't change the optimal strategy.

Is this classical or quantum prisoner's dilemma? Which variation?

Because the knowledge of the prisoner is deeply intertwined with the optimal strategy in quantum prisoner's dilemmas. And quantum prisoner's dilemmas have at times been shown to more accurately match human behavior than classical ones.

No, but if you have principles it might change the strategy chosen.
