CanvasBlocker

Talking about mass surveillance: After taking the usual measurements against cross-site browser tracking- who knows most about my website visits? Meta, Google or Cloudflare? Blocking me from site visits with fingerprinting shut off, forces all my traffic back into the CF funnel. Number of websites soaring. Try it yourself https://sereneblue.github.io/chameleon https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/ and you're increasingly off.

I tested this extension that I've been using for a long time on the turnstile page and it got through, fwiw. I think it's a bit more subtle than how resistfingerprinting works but not sure what the privacy tradeoff is. https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker

I think modifying some fingerprintable apis to give faked/altered results could be enough, given the global fingerprint is a product of all partial fingerprints. Some extensions already implement that, eg. https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/

If you're using Firefox, consider using the CanvasBlocker add-on to reduce the effectiveness of canvas fingerprinting. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/canvasblocker https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker

> Or they are aware and lying, which begs the question of how we can trust anything else. It raises the question [...]. I'd also say that while your points are valid, its perhaps a bit too black/white to completely distrust them based on such a statement. On the other hand, who's behind this browser exactly? With Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla is behind it, and development is in the open. For Mozilla Firefox I can recommend CanvasBlocker [1] to mitigate the technique you described. However, it comes at a price: you'll have a harder time with captcha's. [1] https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/

Wonder no longer. There is an add-on for FF called canvasblocker. https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/releases I have been using it and it makes some websites go nuts and Google CAPTCHA takes forever.

Canvasblocker on Firefox. https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/releases Its a never ending against marketing parasites.

Blocking your canvas to avoid being fingerprinted/tracked is like walking under the CCTV with a hoodie and cap on. Unless everyone under the CCTV does the same you will not be detected but will be tracked. It might be hard to identify you but you will standout. So instead of standing out of the crowd why not disguise so well that the tracker doesn't know the real you. The idea is to use something that gives a fake readout of your fingerprint thus making you look normal but keep changing it occasionally so it leads no where for long time. Try Canvas blocker[1] and/or Canvas Defender for fake readout. [1]https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker
