I am sure I can opt out of BounceX if I know BounceX exists.

But am I really supposed to fill out a DNSMPI form every time I interact with any business? How many new businesses do you think you interact with on a given day? I suspect it is a lot.

Opting out is an unreasonable burden and there's a reason why almost no one does it. And yet we know consumers want privacy, so there is clearly a larger structural problem here.

We already know the solution! Make data collection opt-in.

You can fill out DNSMPI once for a business and it applies for at minimum the next 365 days. You do not need to specifically enumerate systems; it is a blanket prohibition.

Right, once per business per year. Just remember to go back and renew next year!

And perhaps reconsider doing business with companies whose business practices you find objectionable
