> having a unique fingerprint is bad, as it allows tracking of you by fingerprinting, without the need for cookies. Having a unique fingerprint is ideal, as long as it's unique every time. It's insane to think that you can successfully account for every data point that can be collected from a browser. Fingerprinting techniques are changed and new methods are being discovered even while browsers themselves keep adding new features that can be used (or abused) to identify people. Rather than praying that you (and some fingerprinting website) are 100% aware of every single technique that's ever been used anywhere and that nothing new will be discovered giving trackers even just a single unique data point which is all they need to tell you apart from everyone else, it's a lot safer to appear to be someone new with every request.
