It would be better if you could set your preference on the browser once and never have to mess with it again unless you want to have exceptions for specific sites

In theory this is done. There is a Do Not Track (DNT) header that is browser defined. Does anyone use it? Do they fuck.

I use it and the browser kindly explained to me that the feature is mostly useless because sites don't give a shit about it.

Sorry, I'll revise to what I intended (since I also use it). "Does anyone pay attention to it? Do they fuck."
