very hard to circumvate fingerprinting, I use noscript for that
Just use brave

fuck brave
What are your settings for noscript? This test won’t complete after installing it.

Feels good man.
lol this site is almost pointless, real security experts know this is just for making uninformed people feel better.
creepjs will still positively fingerprint you every time. it’s simply impossible to be anonymous online.
that needs javascript to work. I largely block javascript on my browser. you are no a security expert, just misinformed
blocking javascript makes you stand out WAY more. that basically narrows down the pool of possible people from a million to 3.
tell that to my results of 1 in 360
1/76 on my tor
yea tor is a different beast. As close to true anonimity as you can get
how did you reduce your fingerprinting ?
I use an addon called Chameleon that creates a random user agent that changes periodically.
similar, i used Random User Agent, it shows that i have a unique finger print… but the user agent of that fingerprint is not ‘my’ user agent, so in 30 mintutes i would appear as a different fingerprint
In my experience, you have thee choices. You can use NoScript and avoid enabling domains required for fingerprinting, you can turn on privacy.resistFingerprinting in about:config, or instead of focusing on not being fingerprinted, focus on guaranteeing your fingerprint will keep changing.
Funny thing is, I had to enable scripts on that website in order for the test to work lol
I turned privacy.resistFingerprinting to true and now get an absolutely unique fingerprint on the tool
You should include a hyperlink to the actual site in your post.
I forgot sorry! here it is: https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/
Thanks for posting this! I installed privacy badger and modified my user agent as a result of the test. Very helpful insight that I didn’t have before.
