Are you saying it isn't worth spoofing your user agent?
- greglindahl 10y agoI'm saying that user agents are a completely separate issue from what Browserprint is measuring and using for fingerprinting. Browserprint's fingerprint of your browser doesn't change when you change your user agent. tmalsburg2 appears to have tried to make the same point.
- kakarot 10y agoI think we're all misunderstanding each other. I'm aware Browserprint isn't using user agents as their main source of information. It very clearly outlines the information they are using in the results. I was just remarking about the uniqueness of my spoofed user agent vs a non-spoofed agent. After my initial post I went back and found I was still unique even without a spoofed agent. That's really all there was to my comment, I'm not insinuating that I was surprised to find I was uniquely fingerprinted by other means like font and plugin enumeration.
