Add new fetch option to suppress enrollment warning. #289

Open xiaochen-z opened 5 months ago

Prebid (javascript that sites add to the tops of their page to kick off auctions across a number of different sellers) will automatically attempt to gather the ssp's topics (by setting browsingTopics: true) on the fetch request. For those sellers that haven't yet enrolled, this causes a console warning to appear. This is something that pubs and ad-techs would prefer to avoid.

Add a new fetch option to suppress Topics API enrollment warning.

@patmmccann Is it possible for Prebid to only set browsingTopics:true for enrolled API callers, to prevent console errors?

@leeronisrael prebid bidders are welcome to change their adapter behavior to not call topics as MediaGrid did for example, or we could talk about suppressing the warning, but we were hoping it was helping drive adoption eg https://github.com/prebid/Prebid.js/pull/10995

If you're aware of bidders concerned about the warning they are generating who don't intend to enroll, lmk or point them to the grid PR
