Does anyone know any good Firefox/Chrome plugins that help make your browser less unique?

  Well I am using my own extension, with which you can block selectively cookies/javascript (among other stuff) and... With cookies/js/plugins enabled I get: 1 in 3,719,197. With cookies/js/plugins disabled I get: 1 in less than 160,100 Extension: https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard EDIT: redid the tests with clearing cache before.

  You could (from the most painless to the more painful, in my opinion): - Use an addon and change your useragent to something common (I use Firefox Nightly, so changing it to a Firefox stable release would make my browser less unique. Blender is a firefox addon that does that) - Remove as many plugins you can (click2play won't help here, a site can still see the plugin you have installed). - Enable click2play for the plugin that you still have installed (avoid allowing the site to fetch information with those plugins) - Disable cookies (If you want to keep a whitelist, I suggest Cookie Controller for Firefox) - Disable javascript (NoScript for Firefox) Note that those could actually make your browse more unique, since most people allow cookies and javascript. As a quick example of that, my browser has ~20 bits of information (one in 1.242.524) with Flash enabled, but ~22 bits with flash disabled (unique).
