# Console Do Not Track (DNT)
{{ site.description }}
Gatsby has `GATSBY_TELEMETRY_DISABLED`. Homebrew has
`HOMEBREW_NO_ANALYTICS`. Etcher has... well,
[nothing](https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/issues/2057).
This is a proposal for a single, standard environment variable that plainly
expresses an OPT OUT by a user of software to any of the following:
* ad tracking
* usage reporting
* automatic update phone-home
* non-essential requests of any kind to the creator of the software
<span class="reallybig">export DO_NOT_TRACK=1</span>
# PRs and Status
* coming soon
