 * Can we have an option to exclude these from output? They are not valid HTML5.
   I do not care about XHTML, especially when I’m not serving `text/xml`.

 * Hi Steven.
 * Thanks for letting us know about your issue. We don’t have this option in this
   plugin yet.
 * As an alternative, our new [AddThis Website Tools](https://wordpress.org/plugins/addthis-all/)
   plugin will let you specify whether you want those XHTML namespaces added. It
   requires a (free) AddThis account and the social accounts for follow buttons 
   are configured at AddThis.com instead of inside WordPress, but you can still 
   drag and drop widgets for the follow tools into whatever widget areas your theme
   includes.
 * Thanks,
    Julka
