What’s the deal? I’m testing using https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/ Is it truly unique (and repeatable), or is it perhaps being randomized on every request?

I’ve tried normal Firefox, Mull, and IronFox. With and without jShelter.

I’m using my phone. Stock Android on a Pixel 7 Pro.

In DDG Browser I have a “nearly unique” fingerprint.

I installed CanvasBlocker and disabled privacy.resistFingerprinting in IronFox (since CanvasBlocker said to), and my fingerprint is still unique. I guess I’m not surprised since I think CanvasBlocker is designed to randomize canvas fingerprinting.

Any tips on having even a shred of privacy when browsing the web on Android?

    Yep, I agree. Not seen any tools that can do that though. I believe Safari has some randomization built in. But fuck Apple.
