You should try fingerprint.com .That is what Dropbox, Booking.com, TikTok etc use and you need Firefox with Jshelter set to the following settings to defeat it.

  • Time precision: High
  • Locally rendered images: Little lies
  • Locally generated audio: Little lies
  • WebAssembly speed-up: Enabled
  • Everything else including Fingerprint Detector disabled

    I'm not saying I'm a sec expert and impervious to tracking. I don't need to try multiple sites until one gives me more correct hits, I understand the basics of fingerprinting and how it can be used maliciously. I do more than the average user to safeguard my information.

    My point is, real sec professionals attempting to educate and make the general public more knowledgeable about privacy don't have to rely on scare tactics and vague implications that they live in the matrix and are coming for you to accomplish that. It makes them look like ding-dongs who need to take the trenchcoats and sunglasses off and open the blinds. This thankfully seems to be a common sentiment in this thread.
