Most browsers accept any and all cookies by default.
Many browsers can be configured into three states (1) accept anything (=
2) reject third-party cookies (3) reject all cookies.
Many browsers can be configured to specifically accept or reject by dom=
ain (or have an add-in to do that) and the default can be either accept=
or (if reject) can nag you whether to accept/reject and remember that =
choice.
Advertizing agency browsers (such as the Android Advertizing Platform) =
default to accept and send anything to anyone, and you have the choice =
to either (1) accept and send anything to anyone or (2) accept and send=
only to the Advertizing Agency.
