- wongarsu 7y agoJust giving the same value for everyone on the latest version of Firefox using Windows 10 with a maximized window on a 1920p display would seriously hamper fingerprinting. It can still be enough when used with other information (IP, visited sites etc), but at least it would dilute the signal a lot.
- bartimus 7y agoSection 3.2 'Advancing fingerprinting' shows some more ways you can find particularities which will be hard to hide.
