You're right about both parties' rights. However, dealing with the "Most Trusted Internet Company in Privacy" [1], I expect them to do better than to insist each their rights to the letter. With regard to this discussion, as a novice user, I'd expect Mozilla /not to track me/. No ifs, no buts -- Do Not Track ought to skip all third-party tracking and remove any of my identifying data from their logs as soon as reasonably possible.
