Comment on Show HN: Explore what the browser exposes about you

Comments

This is useless. I think you misunderstand the point of fingerprinting. A powerful fingerprinting algo should strive to detect you as the same person (aprox) while you use two different browsers. A more powerful one will detect you while you use another device. This only detect your current refresh.

Thanks for pointing this out. At first, I was concerned – “Unique to 1 in 2,147,483,648+ devices” – but, my fingerprint ID changes with each page refresh, so there's no tracking possible. I'm using Brave on iOS.
