We need browsers where the _user_ can specify their legal terms in the response headers. Let's make this two-sided.

In a negotiation, either side can walk away. If the website can’t refuse then it’s not really a negotiation. So how would that work? If you set certain headers, the website blocks you? It doesn’t seem like that would be a popular feature.

It would make more sense as filtering criteria for a search engine.

Well, we could have organisations like the EFF compose a set of consumer-friendly clauses, which the user can then choose from.

If the website wants to block something the EFF deems a good and reasonable protection for the user, then maybe they should indeed block the request.
