| 2024-03-19 |  | | en | Activating the extension (setting "Random fingerprint") does seem to change the fingerprint on every reload on this site "https://browserleaks.com/canvas". However, on this site "https://fingerprint.com/" it keeps recognizing me. Even in Incognito/Private mode, after closing the browser or tab (and changing public IP-address using VPN). Although I do get the popup from this extension stating that the fingerprint is blocked. So, not sure if this extension is adequate if it only changes the hash in using these very specific steps. Using Brave on Win10, by the way. And fingerprint-setting is set to "Strict" |
| 2022-09-06 |  | | Fixed Fingerprint - This option isn't useful at all. You do NOT get randomnized Fixed Fingerprint by enabling this option. Your Fingerprint is same for ALL chrome based browser run within the same computer. You can test it using Comodo Dragon (chrome based) or portable version of Chrome. | |
