- ada-h00kI think it's great that Firefox is finally doing more to combat fingerprinting. For a long time, they lagged a bit behind Brave in this regard. That said, unfortunately, neither browser has been able to do anything about Cloudflare Turnstile yet. Kagi, for example, uses it to fingerprint users.
- asciimooToo bad they still generate a random unique ID for each installed extension that can expose a trackable UUID...https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1717671
- idbeholdI'd like to have some of the APIs that read the data used to fingerprint browsers be behind a confirmation dialog per site similar to allowing popups or microphone/video access.> Oh, I see that you'd like to read the canvas pixel data, let me check if that's okay with the user first.
- theyeenzbeanzOne caveat I’ve experienced with Firefox branches that focus on privacy is I get “punished” with captchas from hell because I refuse to let websites siphon and prey on every last bit of private info. Hopefully this doesn’t succumb to the same issue.
- zx8080Am I the only expecting it to completely break the sites behind cloudflare on Firefox?
- jon128Surveillance fingerprinting will only end with major changes to the web.If you are among those capable of 3rd order thinking or even just 2nd order thinking, and consider what kind of world you want to live in, you may already know that these changes must happen, even if that means the functional web is bifurcated for a while.
