Chrome Web Store does not verify user reviews, so some user reviews may be inaccurate,
spammy, or outdated. Pros
- Functions as advertised and effectively mitigates WebGL fingerprinting.
- Users appreciate its specific focus on a single type of exploit, rather than being a catchall solution.
- Tested successfully against various browser fingerprinting methods.
Cons
- Does not work properly on Chrome 89 and versions above, impacting those unable to upgrade their browser.
- Sites can still detect that the WebGL fingerprint is spoofed, which raises concerns about effectiveness.
- Lacks a whitelist option, meaning it can block legitimate website features.
Most mentioned
- Issues with notifications and intrusive sounds.
- Need for a pause/disable button and whitelist functionality.
- Not trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing, leading to installation warnings.
