No extensions that randomly change your fingerprint? I suppose that might trigger a lot of captchas.

- majorchord 8mo agoThere are but I'm not aware of anything that can reliably fool creepjs. https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs/ https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs/ And yes it often results in endless captcha loops.
- fsflover 8mo agoFingerprinting can be extremely sophisticated. Have a look at this test: https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/ https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/ Only Tor Browser can reliably fight with it.
- ranger_danger 8mo agoTor Browser will not even hide the OS you're using from javascript... so if you're on Linux, you are automatically more identifiable than >97% of people. Also, that EFF site only checks against other people who visited the same site, so the results are skewed IMO. The other comment that links to creepjs is what I consider the best available open source tool.
- fsflover 8mo agoYes, the anonymization is not perfect but it's the best you can get. You don't have to compare your fingerprint with other visitors. Just have a look at the detailed information to understand which things reveal your identity the most.
