Recently this link was on HN[1]. It ranks your browser on regular tracking and fingerprinting separately. "Tor without JS" was the only option I found to be completely fingerprint resistant. Even Tor "with JS on strict settings" ranked it as only "partly fingerprint resistant". (Interestingly firefox without JS never returns)
Scary stuff.
I'd like to hear other people's experiences/experiments here.
>Your browser fingerprint has been randomized among the 378,837 tested in the past 45 days. Although sophisticated adversaries may still be able to track you to some extent, randomization provides a very strong protection against tracking companies trying to fingerprint your browser.
>Currently, we estimate that your browser has a fingerprint that conveys at least 18.53 bits of identifying information.
Anyway, this test doesn't really communicate the results very well. Yes, Tor browser stands out. No, it's not easy to differentiate between different Tor browser users via this kind of fingerprinting.
Let me rephrase it: you believe it, I don't believe.
For window size only 1 in 380326.0 browsers has this value.
I'm downloading safari right now.
EDIT: just saw I need to download playonlinux or wine. Forget about it.
Sorry, who concluded that this is fingerprintin resistant? Does the website tell you that, or was this your conclusion? Because my reading is with a number that small, you're almost uniquely identifiable. Is it possible you're misunderstanding what the report is showing?
Would you be assed to continue this conversation elsewhere? I'd like to get to the bottom of this?
Those two values are the only ones returned by the browser which are useful for fingerprinting beyond "stock safari". Window size being the biggest part of that, but window size tends to change fairly regularly.
