What score does your browser(s) get?
I’ll start: I got:
one in ~25000 browsers have the same fingerprint as yours
“Your browser has a unique fingerprint”…well that isn’t good…
I’m not sure how to read this report. It says my browser is unique and random with strong protections.
More of my stats:
Fennec (privacy badger + unlock origin): 1 in 23301.0
Fennec private tab (privacy badger + unlock origin): 1 in 20712.44
Firefox hardened (arkenfox + privacy badger + unlock origin): 1 in 37281.6
Firefox hardened private tab(arkenfox + privacy badger + unlock origin): 1 in 31069.5
Mullvan browser (dafaults with unlock): 1 in 147.48
There is also fingerprint.com, which I tend to trust more since it’s a company that literally sells fingerprinting tech to other companies.
It managed to identify me while using the Tor browser on “Safer” (doesn’t work on “Safest” due to JS). Edit: this is likely due to an issue with my install, and not the browser itself.
Am I looking for a high number or a low number?
Looks like Chrome randomized my fingerprint but Firefox doesn’t. Does that mean I should be using chrome instead of FF?
Spoof your user-agent in FF
That’s very easy to catch. You stand out much, much more as a spoofing firefox user than as a firefox user.
I need this but Firefox mobile doesn’t have that option yet
Well Im sure there is an addon to do that

Within our dataset of several hundred thousand visitors tested in the past 45 days, only one in 93387.5 browsers have the same fingerprint as yours.
Currently, we estimate that your browser has a fingerprint that conveys 16.51 bits of identifying information.
But also
Your browser has a nearly-unique fingerprint
I don’t get it
Almost no browser has the same fingerprint as yours, which makes it nearly unique.
Mine said -
Your browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 184,486 tested in the past 45 days.
Don’t get it either, just stock FF on stock Android
On LibreWolf, which I use to surf daily, I got one in 180k+.
Afterwards, I tried Tor Browser -which is honestly almost never used- and this was a lot better at one in 6k+. Though this was only in “Safer” mode, I tried testing it on “Safest” afterwards, but an update screwed it up and I somehow couldn’t get it back to its standard opening size.
Interestingly, my best result I got once again on LibreWolf. This time, I changed two things:
- Enable letterboxing
- Disable Javascript entirely through uBlock Origin
This resulted in a one in 800+. I am interested to know how Mullvad browser users fare on Mullvad VPN.

Many parts of your browser’s fingerprint which can be randomized are well known to tracking companies, so your strategy isn’t perfect.
Your Mullvad result seems too high btw, though I don’t have access to my computer right now to compare.
I see. I too use similar settings on Librewolf: should try it.
I’ve an unique fingerprint, but different fp results in every test run, with mostly wrong sys specs, only it shows correct my country, nothing else. Same in Browserleaks.
Only one in 706.9 browsers have the same fingerprint as
yoursmine.Is that bad? Or is this like golf.
Not necessarily bad, the lower the number the harder it is to fingerprint you. In other words, your browser stands out much less and is less noticeable from the masses than the OPs browser.
Generally the more security/privacy tweaks and add-ons you apply to your browser the more secure it gets, but you tend to stand out from the masses more because of the changes, resulting in the 1 in 4,000 type stat. It becomes easier to differentiate your traffic from others.
Whether anonymity or security is more desirable depends on your threat model.
Edit: “Your browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 186,867 tested in the past 45 days.” Evidently I stand out quite a bit 😂

Firefox mobile with various addons, most important of which is probably NoScript
