Wait, but the case for TOR isn't to hide you are using TOR, but to blend in with the crowd of TOR users. Does my TOR browser give a different fingerprint than yours?

The IPs of TOR exit nodes are publicly known. I'm not sure people using TOR are aware of how the concept and peer discovery mechanism works. I mean, at some point you gotta ask yourself why cloudflare shows all TOR users a captcha in a targeted manner :)

  > I mean, at some point you gotta ask yourself why cloudflare shows all TOR users a captcha in a targeted manner :) Because exit node IP address' are known, you have just said it. How does it have anything to do with user fingerprinting? And how does it answer the question of @gtsop asking whether different users of ToR web browser have different distinguishable fingerprint or not?

the browser fingerprint may be software / hardware dependant TOR will hide your IP to interested parties (unless they have NSA resources / can buy a good part of the TOR network)
