Yeah, that's great. Blocking/spoofing fingerprinting is a bit like wearing a mask. If it's only a handful of people, it may even be worse from a privacy/trackin

- mirimir 8y agoWell, if Canvas Defender actually worked, you could change fingerprints daily or weekly or whatever. So you'd still have a valid fingerprint. Just not invarient.
- Uberphallus 8y agoStill, you'd get a pretty unique fingerprint, so even if it changes, it can help reduce the entropy bits if the trackers are half smart (hey, this is the guy with the Nixon mask, now he's wearing an Obama mask instead). You don't need to just hide your real fingerprint, you need to make it look like everybody else's.
