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?
Easiest answer would be: Use a common OS, with a common browser, and no add-ons.
The moment you start using something different to Windows, Android, iOS or macOS with Safari, Chrome or Firefox, you’re probably already in the 5 % (just my uninformed estimate). Add-ons also increase this value drastically.
Long story short: The sad truth is, the moment you’re interested in online-prviacy, you’re very unique.
Is there no way to spoof that I’m using one of those without actually using them?
Go with Brave. They add stuff to your fingerprint, so that is is completely irrelevant!
You’re unique and everyone loves you.
Using Tor Browser with default settings is probably the least time consuming way of reducing a site’s ability to uniquely identify you.
I wonder if you don’t actually use tor but use their version of Firefox if you still get their anti fingerprint benefits, or if being one of the few tor users not using tor makes you too unique.
A big part of the anonymisation of Tor is from the routing, so I’m doubtful that just using their Firefox customizations would be enough.
That’s not what I was talking about. The Tor network (onion routing) is a totally separate thing. Tor as an application has very good anti fingerprint protections. I was referring to that feature specifically not the rest of Tor.
Sure if you really wanna benefit, use Tor’s routing. But I am just admiring that the people that built Tor really knew what they were doing in all aspects of the application including the anti fingerprint protections.
