One thing I've never understood about fingerprinting is that Firefox is supposed to prevent it by mangling the fingerprint data if you have those settings turned on. However whenever I visit sites like this, they all those the same thing that never changes, which means my fingerprint is quite stable and shared easily.
- est31 6y agoFirefox's fingerprinting protections are useful, but they are not enough to prevent fingerprinting altogether.
- canofbars 6y agoThe problem with all these anti-fingerprinting tools is you show up as a firefox user who went in to the settings and turned on fingerprint protections which no other user did so you are unique again. You need lots of users to have the same setting enabled to blend in.
