They're ignoring it for me. See: https://twitter.com/kennwhite/status/525374343074029568 Can you confirm you connected over cellular when testing?

Yep, over LTE on an iPhone 6, in NYC. The only thing unique is I have Safari configured to send the DNT header. It would be amusing (in a good way) if that made VZ's infrastructure not tag all my traffic.

Yeah, I've got nothing. Maybe it's only specific IP blocks that have the 'feature' enabled yet?
