    I have been unique vistor everytime on many different test I have done in the past but this gets me spot on, which brings me to the question how can I randomise myself, or make myself unique everytime or blend in as a generic device? Basically anything that can be done to break fingerprinting. I am on libre wolf with some extensions

      From the site:

      PS: some of what you just read may be flat-out wrong. That helps less than you’d think, fingerprinting doesn’t need to be accurate, it needs to be consistent. If your browser gets something wrong the same way on every site, the mistake itself becomes part of your fingerprint.

    Interesting. It doesn’t even mention Add Ons or Extensions (unless I missed ut, I only saw webGL extensions). I know a lot of it is inferred, but is still remarkably accurate. The “Times you looked away” box being accurate for me was a real slap in the chops.
