any suggstions for the browser?
LibreWolf might be a good option.
reply
librewolf is great. Basically hardened Firefox

Install Librewolf and Firefox. Visit fingerprint.com on both (I'm getting the exact same fingerprint across these browsers, yes with
resistFingerprinting=true on both)I don't know what hardened means anymore.

Interesting, thanks for sharing your experience. Did the same test and have different fingerprints. I wasn't even using a VPN. Its an arms race though. These ad companies are constantly trying to defeat privacy tools.
Are you on Linux btw?

That's interesting. Maybe it depends on the OS?
It's definitely an arms race. Those sneakerbots are some sophisticated shit to constantly get around fingerprinting and bot detection.
I'm hoping that the value-for-value movement will help end this fiat ad monster: https://dergigi.com/2022/12/18/a-vision-for-a-value-enabled-web

Use different browsers (Brave, Firefox, ungoogled chromium) if possible also in disposable VMs, on a VPN with custom DNS to remove trackers.
Have a browser for KYC browsing/logins exclusively.
