Even with resistFingerprinting, websites will be able to fingerprint you. There is no full immunity against fingerprinting. Websites already break often with the strictest protections enabled, adding a "super duper strict protections&q

The online demos require WebGPU so Firefox on mobilr and privacy enhanced browsers will break. WebGPU support on Linux and other open source systems is also trash, you can force it to work in Chrome but it won't be happy.

Couldn't try it because the demo app is iOS only and the web version just crashes my browser. The small model is impressive but if you front load a 1.8GB text encoder model, the savings aren't quite as useful. I do wonder how thes

Fingerprinting is just an implementation, banning it will just drive these companies to invent new tricks. That's why the GDPR doesn't specify any technical tracking methods, whether you're using cookies or fingerprinting or

Remote attestation should still be possible with a rooted phone if phone manufacturers weren't so shit. If the attestation happens at hardware level, it doesn't matter what programs or kernels you're running.

Enabling resistfingerprinting on my Android phone shows me the same error screen. It's not just webkit. fingerprintingProtection works fine on the other hand, but then again that's intentionally less intrusive.

You can't rename most Bluetooth speakers. "Bomb" was the name the selling brand gave the speaker. By making everyone turn off their Bluetooth, the kid whose speaker had turned on probably couldn't even see the device bro

It doesn't remember my preference. Or rather, it seems to remember me picking a specific language, and then loads the dub in that language next time I click a video. It doesn't remember "don't duh videos".
