“Our small experiment highlights just how much identifying information your browser reveals whenever you visit a website. Browser fingerprinting is not inherently good or bad; it can enable important security checks, but it can also be used for invasive tracking. The reality is that simply running a “stock” browser to blend in or relying on a VPN alone won’t make you anonymous. Fingerprinting works by combining a wide range of attributes, far beyond just your browser settings or IP address.
