So my two points are perhaps overlapping.
I don't want people to track me on the internet, I think the main reason they bother is that they can show me ads that will be more interesting to me and make them more money. I can resist this by not showing the adverts to myself.
I'd like to make it harder for them to track me at all, though this is always an arms war it seems like I'm labeling myself at the moment. I'm not familiar with the technology they use to detect adblockers, does it detect "U-Block Origin (Firefox) Ver 17.3" or does it just detect "I can't seem to see the ad I know should be here, this user is blocking my ads." if it's the latter then my proposal to adopt a blank/universal fingerprint is willing to confess the single bit of information of whether the user has decided to refuse adverts.
