I built a privacy exposure checker that shows exactly what data your browser leaks to every website you visit.
It detects:
- Canvas and WebGL fingerprints
- Screen resolution, color depth, pixel ratio
- CPU cores and GPU model
- Timezone, locale, and formatting preferences
- Installed fonts
- Battery level and connection type
- WebRTC leak potential
Combined, these create a fingerprint unique to ~99.5% of browsers according to EFF research.
Everything runs locally in the browser. Nothing is transmitted.
Most users score 70+ out of 100 on the exposure scale. Incognito mode has zero effect on the score.
Mitigation: Firefox strict tracking protection + uBlock Origin + disable WebRTC.
