Thank you for this - I'd often assumed Canvas Defender was no good but I couldn't quite put my finger on why.

It is really fascinating how all this works. And I'm really happy that multilogin writes these blog posts. I think it brings up questions of how necessary is this information and is it worth the cost (loss of privacy). I'm not a web developer so I'm not sure how useful these metrics are. Or is it just limitations? How much of an impact would implementing pixel perfect renders be (as in page load time)? I'd love to know what people that work in these areas think. Pros and cons.
