Isn't this exactly how it prevents FB from tracking you? Those "various other things" that it uses will all be different between different containers. I think the source IP thing is a valid point, which is why other commenters have pointed out that you can force your FB container to connect through a proxy, while your other containers don't.
- one2know 6y agoTimestamps, IP, and user agent are probably enough to reconstruct the user visit. Chrome is now sending a browser generated fingerprint x-client-data to all Google's domains while of course they will be trying to end use of referer header for everyone else. They are shameless and think people are dumb. Mobile carriers are injecting their own fingerprint headers into outgoing http requests as well if not using https.
- pushrax 6y agoTIL about x-client-data. It looks even worse than user-agent, it's completely unique per user. I think you mean user-agent rather than referer?
