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.
I don’t understand why this should be inherently impossible. If you buy a separate device, and use that exclusively for one thing and do not cross-contaminate, that should work to avoid fingerprinting right? And this is all information that your computer is voluntarily providing, and is I assume possible to change independently from the hardware. So why not?
The way and what you type, how you move your mouse, when you browse…
Think we can make things more difficult, but just assume tracked everywhere. Won’t know about browser privacy 0days either for who knows how long.
Some stuff has to be reported accurately for stuff to work well, like screen size. Other stuff can be and is faked, even by Apple out of the box I’m pretty sure.
CDNs serve different sizes accordingly I thought? Sometimes. Deliver pages faster without noticeable image compression. Don’t some large sites do this all the time? Based on viewport size
I don’t know but I want a browser layer that lies about it and then renders the page in a way that doesn’t send back more information, and I think it would probably work and only be slightly buggy.
Is there any way to browse the web without being fingerprinted, short of literally using a separate computer
Really?
No.
It’s been this way for a while. At best, you can use some techniques to provide plausible deniability from a legal perspective.
Not that laws matter anymore.
The best you can do is try to blend in.

Not my area of expertise :)
Ah yes, CSS, the famously serverside technology

Yes, I want to appear to be using the same device as like anyone. Think that’s rather Tor’s philosophy.
