Those aren’t comparable at all. DNT is a header that required cooperation; nothing to work around. privacy.resistFingerprinting actually solves fingerprinting, and if it were enabled by default it would be incredibly effective. (It won’t be

No, as close as it gets is privacy.resistFingerprinting. Extensions shouldn’t even try to do this. (I’ve actually never heard of an extension that tries to do this.)

Sharing passwords/secret keys itself isn’t good practice, though, so I hope most teams don’t find a need to use pass to achieve that.

Yes, as long as enough people randomize them along with you.

”Random data” can be part of that “same fingerprint”, and it actually already is (Firefox with privacy.resistFingerprinting, and I think Tor too, randomize canvas and WebGL results).

Pixels have always had their uses, but I moved from em to pixels even for sizes that would ideally scale with text in order to be able to get things to align to whole vertical pixels (and horizontal ones, when not centered).

Because that’s a lot of hidden UI for something people rarely want to do (be on an insecure version of a website while a secure version exists) and might not work and that they can still do relatively easily by typing ”s”.

Yeah, I guess if you insert the incorrect [ed], it becomes incorrect.

It’s fundamental to the way Git works. Signed commits are a thing when you need verified authorship.

Because it gives the false appearance of security. With this scheme, you always need to act as if the e-mail addresses are plaintext anyway. It should not be used.

PQC would be more interesting than bizarre and SHA-3 wouldn’t be bizarre at all (it’s a straight improvement on SHA-2 in isolation).

Making assumptions about name formatting doesn't stop name fields from being abused in those ways.

Where is your webpage hosted that makes it not require setup or hosting costs compared to scripts served from the same place?

Can’t always use that. It’s much less specific compared to the potential of cache, only works when websites provide that type of redirect, doesn’t work if you block third-party cookies (I think a form of that might already be the default in

by minitech 6y ago
It (thinks it) can’t do that because <style> introduces a special parsing mode where those character references would be interpreted literally.

That’s not valid HTML. It’s “working” HTML, because error recovery is defined pretty well, but quite invalid.

They’re referring to duplicate keys’ precedence. `a or b` prefers `a` if truthy, but `a | b` prefers b’s values.

Base64 is harder to type, memorize, and communicate, although I do usually use lowercase letters for this type of thing as an improvement over digits.

My experience across several devices is that Firefox's performance is much better on Linux and much worse on macOS. Not sure why.
