No. Quote about canvas fingerprinting: "Comparing our results with a 2014 study [1], we find three important trends. First, the most prominent trackers have by-and-large stopped using it, suggesting that the public backlash following that study was effective. Second, the overall number of domains employing it has increased considerably, indicating that knowledge of the technique has spread and that more obscure trackers are less concerned about public perception. As the technique evolves, the images used have increased in variety and complexity, as we detail in Figure 12 in the Appendix. Third, the use has shifted from behavioral tracking to fraud detection, in line with thead industry’s self-regulatory norm regarding acceptable uses of fingerprinting." [1] G. Acar,C. Eubank, S.
