Bug#654336: Enable Do Not track by default

Package: iceweasel
Version: 9.0.1-1
Severity: wishlist

Since version 4.0, Mozilla Firefox - and hence, IceWeasel - has a Do 
Not Track[1] setting, by default not enabled.

Mozilla denies pleads to have this setting enabled by default[2]. This 
is something Debian can fix in IceWeasel. It's a simple matter of 
switching the default state of a single checkbox.

This is somewhat related to #503127[3] in that it's also supposed to 
enhance default privacy. They are complimentary, and it would be good 
to have both fixed.
