When do not track first came out I remember it was google's response to a Mozilla developer that came up with a sort of ad-blocker for cookies. Does anyone remember this? Or am I making this up?

And yeah, I suspect there are ways to get some genuine client-side protection against third-party tracking (by shutting down ipc between origins, be it through cookies or whatever — a page accessing another origin's cookies through an iframe would either block or get cookies namespaced by the outer origin).
