I went on amiunique.com, and it says that I’m unique.

Lowest scores: list of fonts JS (0.01%), canvas (0.00%), media devices (0.00%), user agent (0.11%), and audio data (0.80%)

I use Linux Mint Debian edition, Librewolf browser, and Mullvad VPN. How do I become less unique?

    The bottom result (the % certain one) is just a fuzzy match of similar fingerprints AFAICT.

      Cool. Thanks. I’m a bit confused because it seems like people are saying that normal Firefox won’t protect you against this, but it does indeed seem to if you use the strict privacy setting which blocks both known fingerprinters and suspected fingerprinters.

      Edit: hm nevermind. Sometimes it appears to change the client code, sometimes it doesn’t.

      So should both the server and client codes change each time you reopen a new browser session? Or just the client?

        Both should if your goal is to not have a reusable fingerprint (which for a privacy focus would be). Server should change more frequently since it has access to less information about the browser. Server based fingerprinting is fairly unreliable, client side uses Javascript to generate more bits of unique data.

          Lol for some reason my server fingerprint won’t budge but the client seems to change between 2 or 3 different ones.

          Then another person I asked to try it said his client stayed the same but the server changed.
