Google said it does not consider browser fingerprinting to be a security vulnerability.

Apple described the attack as “currently out of scope,” with possible mitigations in the future.

Mozilla acknowledged the findings but has not implemented any fix.

Well Firefox should get a fix because the other two don’t give a shit. Hopefully DDG does too.

    I think it's more likely Firefox forks will than Chromium forks, we already have some mitigation on Waterfox and Librewolf, despite Mozilla being a complete joke now they do still have some good projects fixing everythng they screw up.
