The problem is not JS, the problem is useless techonolgies like WebRTC or WebGL that can run without permission and that, I think, are used in 99% cases for figerprinting. And people who designed them and did nothing to prevent fingerprinting.
- binoct 10mo agoNeither WebRTC or WebGL are remotely ‘useless’. Very fair though to say that you would prefer to have them disabled and/or whitelisted for certain sites.
- beeflet 10mo agoWebGL and WebRTC are hardly useless, but they allow you to collect way too much fingerprinting data based on the way they've been designed.
