There are add ons to change the user agent to something more generic. You can even randomize it but it breaks many more sites than I was expecting.

- ReverseCold 9y agoIf by randomizing you mean random strings (and not from a list), then I think this is relevant: https://xkcd.com/1105/ https://xkcd.com/1105/
- sametmax 9y agoRandomly selected from a pool of known UA.
- roblabla 9y agoI think randomizing the UA might actually be worse, since it would allow services to fingerprint you across calls more precisely. The point is to not ever be different from others. Act like the rest of the crowd. By changing your UA every now and then, you stand out, and become easier to identify.
