- ljk 10y agoone of the reviews Out of date 2/5 stars Language spoofing no longer works (assuming it ever worked). Chosen user-agent, etc is pretty out of date. Should choose the same ones as the Tor Browser Bundle or something how accurate is this? is this extension still worth it?
- tunap 10y agoPerhaps, somewhat...? It does claim to additionally spoof fonts, OS and browser metrics. It has not been updated since April and that came after a long maintenance drought preceding it. In the past it did well on the various browser fingerprint detection sites. Today, I am unique with the only difference between Blender enabled and disabled on Panopticlick[1] is the OS & Browser are indeed spoofed in the results and too many fonts to audit... w/ AB+ disabled, NS disabled(all/globally).
