Did you test your browser fingerprint lately ?

I've tested with Tor browser which seemed to do fine. Tested with VPN and the fingerprint site recognized the browser by fingerprint each time after closing the browsing session or reboot. đŸ€Ż

What is going on with the Privacy Guides forum? - Lemmy

A user created a thread [https://lemmy.today/post/49916187] in this lemmy community remarking that the Tor Browser has a personally identifiable fingerprint under normal settings (the “Standard” and “Safer” modes make you fingerprintable), with several commenters doing the same test and reporting the same. The user who created this post also said that on the privacy guides forum posts about this topic are being deleted. The poster could try to provide proof. Has at least one of these posts been archived (on archive.is [http://archive.is] or archive.org [http://archive.org])?

It's easy to assume a VPN keeps you private, but they're not effective against the most prevalent form of cross-site tracking: Browser Fingerprinting.

Our latest video covers what browser fingerprinting is in detail and what you can do to protect yourself from trackers, plus we spoke with @ruihildt from @mullvadnet for more info on what the top privacy browsers are doing about this problem.

Ich möchte eine Studie bewerben an der ich schon lĂ€ngere Zeit Teilnahme und ich halte es fĂŒr gut und richtig diese Studie durchzufĂŒhren. Sie hilft mir auch bei der Auswahl von Trackingabwehr. https://browser-fingerprint.cs.fau.de/
Die Teilnahme ist extrem einfach.

Study on Browser Fingerprinting

Study on Browser Fingerprinting

Vor 10 Jahren habe ich eine Feldstudie zum Thema #browserfingerprint durchgefĂŒhrt. Es geht darum, ob man User auch ohne Cookies tracken konnte. Und ja: das konnte man. Sehr gut sogar.

Es gab ĂŒber 20.000 Teilnahmen an der Studie und ich wollte meine Diplomarbeit teils sogar zu einer Dissertation ausweiten.

Viele GrundsÀtze gelten noch heute.

Alles dazu hier (auch die 124-Seitige PDF): https://www.henning-tillmann.de/2013/10/browser-fingerprinting-93-der-nutzer-hinterlassen-eindeutige-spuren/

Browser Fingerprinting: 93% der Nutzer hinterlassen eindeutige Spuren auf Websites - Henning Tillmann

Wer sich vor Tracking im Web schĂŒtzen möchte, deaktiviert Cookies – so die landlĂ€ufige Meinung. Jedoch hinterlĂ€sst jeder Webseitenaufruf eine Art digitalen Fingerabdruck, womit fast alle Internetnutzer wiederzuerkennen sind. In meiner Diplomarbeit und ausfĂŒhrlichen Feldstudie mit 20.000 Browser Fingerprints konnte ich diese Annahme bestĂ€tigen.
