It does spoof, but only to a print similar to this the print added below while real system would be Linux, could be nice if plugin could rotate the entire footprint between either different operating system and version being picked as a random version each session between latest update and an older version (note i have this managed by the Windscribe plugin and this bypasses it ignoring the version suggested by the plugin) Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:108.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/108.0

Is Browser Fingerprint Protector Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Browser Fingerprint Protector requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Browser Fingerprint Protector may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
