A web page that tells you what your browser gave away the moment you arrived. No login, no form, no permission. Most pages do this. None of them tell you.
Interesting, I wonder how unique the fingerprinting is though, they don’t give you any specific stats.
Is it really possible to identify me with like 1/100 precision for example, if you don’t have my real IP, real country, no trackers, and all you have is a list of fonts, my graphics card, and the browser info?
Yeah, I kinda wish the site generated a hash or something because I’ve got an extension that fakes the canvas results, but the site says those identifiers are unique for me… But are they the same unique (which indicates the extension isn’t doing anything) or different each time (which might even make the others less useful if it aggregates everything?
I did notice earlier today that the YouTube recommendations were all actually related to the video I was currently watching instead of it trying to get me to go down a rabbit hole I’ve already been down even logged out, like it does on my desktop where I haven’t installed that extension.
