This ones my fave: https://amiunique.org/fingerprint

It shows the percentages of people who use your same browser features (called similarity ratios), and can determine whether you're unique in their dataset. Can help for tweaking browser settings to try to make yourself not unique.

    Is there no add on, for Firefox, for example, to stop or confuse fingerprinting?

    Any suggestions?

    For Android.

    My Mum always said I was unique.

    Now I have proof!

    Just being in Australia, and setting the timezone correctly gets you to below 0.6%

    😒

    i used to think that firefox on linux and as plain-jane-generic as you could get besides windows; but no, i'm ultra unique:

    Yes! You are unique among the 5084762 fingerprints in our entire dataset.

    Somehow safari on an iPhone is also unique.

    Check next week or in a new private tab now, prob be unique then too—think Apple’s fuzzing/reporting some noise/junk data for us.

    Canvas:

    & WebGL:

    gotta be noisy, here’s hoping!

    that's pretty comprehensive, and similarity ratios show how easy it is to create a unique fingerprint for somebody if you hash a few of these metrics together for example.
