It would be nice if they (or someone) could list ways to mitigate against each of these information leakages. Or even nicer if someone made a plugin that make us unidentifiable. Even nicer would be a way to e.g. disable sharing which fonts, extensions, etc. I have installed. Why do webpages even need to know such details? What if our browsers just sent Firefox vN instead of this huge string? Why does a webpage need to know how many CPU cores I have, or, let's say I have > 4, that should be sufficient to run any webpage and anything > 4 could just be reported as 4. If they don't know these things, I assume webpages/frameworks will still work fine.
