Even though i have Proton VPN blocking trackers and use firefox with arkenfox EFF always says my browser has a unique fingerprint. Same with Mullvad browser and Tor. When I switched Tor to “Safer” it said near unique fingerprint, and only when i switched it to safest did it say i am protected from fingerprinting

from my results id guess that it has no fingerprit thanks to no javascript, but 90% of websites are useless without js

    Try it with Mullvad Browser or Brave. The former should give “You have a non-unique fingerprint”, while the latter should give “You have a randomised fingerprint”.

    I personally prefer Mullvad, as it’s not run by a raging homophobe and it’s not based on Chromium.

      You and 1000 friends go to a party all dressed in the same Mr Blobby costume. When one of you gets absolutely shitfaced at the open bar and vomits in the middle of the dance floor, they get kicked out and banned from next week’s rager. Next week rolls around, and 1001 Mr Blobbys rock up on on the dance floor, because management has no idea which Mr Blobby cost them their deposit last week.

      You and 1000 friends all go to a party dressed as a unique DeviantArt Sonic OC. One of you fails to hold their liquor. They get kicked out. You all attend the party next week all wearing a completely different costume of a completely different DeviantArt Sonic OC, since the number of them is functionally infinite. Management can’t kick the vomiteer out because as far as they’re concerned, Jimmy the Hedgehog didn’t show up this week, because whoever was Jimmy the Hedgehog is now Steve the Echidna.
