    In my case, "at least 18.2 bits of information", but that seems to be an underestimate based on being unique amongst the recent visitors (~300k = 2^18). If they were independent, the information sources available on me would sum to about 75 bits).

    Less than 8 bits of information with the Tor browser.

    Browser manufacturers should offer a reduced fingerprint option (rather than only trying to block fingerprinting sites).

      @BorisBarbour my taste in smaprphones is too rare for my timezone, I lose on hardware fingerprinting alone, tor can't save me

          @Lizette603_23 @BorisBarbour what? It's a tool created by the Electronic Frontier Foundation in 2010 under the name Panopticlick.

          It's not some 'random thing', it's a web browser checker tool created by people that know what they're talking about.

            @BorisBarbour

            Screen Size and Color Depth
            1920x1200x32

            One in x browsers have this value: 1896.9

            So being a bit taller than a telly (hey, I read A4 portrait documents on my screen rather more than I watch telly) is really quite unusual?

              @TimWardCam@c.im @BorisBarbour@mastodon.social that is a bit strange yeah, most screens are still 1080p or standard sized 720p from what I know, also 32bit color depth is pretty fancy I think 😛

                      @BorisBarbour iOS in-app browsing in Ice Cubes with iCloud Private Relay enabled: 12.02 bits.

                      Safari on the same phone with the same settings: 12 bits.

                      Not bad.
