I checked my settings while on vpn on the website panopticlick and while I'm mostly good, my browser fingerprint is "unique".
not that I have anything to hide but I like being private. It's supposed to be a right in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave...
I tried turning off javascript through about:config but it just breaks sites-like this one.
I tried Tor a few years ago and found the endless updates too annoying to deal with. I'm thinking there is little a person can do now days to maintain privacy...I'll look at the global scope rules more carefully - thanks for pointing this out.
There was a open source browser called "Drooble" or Dooble" that looked amazing and seemed to have a lot of privacy built in. Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to render a page and sadly, it's not supported anymore. Too bad too because it had real potential
I suspect that using an obscure browser is actually going to make you stand out even more. :-/
By the way, I will edit this to add that I named my daughter Ambrosia. She wears the name well.
What a lovely name for a little girl! Believe it or not, I use FF developer edition #whatever...tweak the snot out of "About:config" in an attempt to turn off geolocation, pocket, hello and all the telemetry shite FF has...try to maintain privacy and you stick out even more!
Sheesh.
If you set the global scope rules then you can block more by default. It's in the upper left, near where the URL is, when you open the menu. The reality is that you'll never have true anonymity online. You can make it more difficult, but even using tools like Tor don't make one completely anonymous - given things like "timing attacks."
