Post your scores. If this is too soykafpost-ish then discuss the reliability of sites such as this, and post alternatives.

God damnit, you beat me by a bit.
Yet Another Lainon · 2018-09-27 16:48
You all can do better than that. Think: What's going to give you the largest anonymity set to blend in with?

>>9637 I've been using the Tor Browser bundle, but nothing I've done has lowered it further. Are you using an extension to spoof useragent and headers or something? I know that TBB already spoofs the useragent, so I'm not sure what would do better.
Acid Burn · 2018-09-28 15:07
>>9637 Possibly the values for the average computer, something like Win10, Chrome, with a popular resolution like 1366x768 and fonts from a plain instalation including MS Office, plus language and timezone set to the US.

need to update my "normal browsing" setup, far too identifiable clocking in at 21 bits minimum, 63.47 maximum :/ is it even possible to spoof screen size? That's by far the biggest source of uniqueness for me(next up is canvas fingerprint, which apparently CanvasBlocker didn't break)
Hong, Guil Dong · 2018-09-28 18:41
also: note that uniqueness isn't necessarily the same as trackability. If your fingerprint changes frequently that makes you much harder to track.

>>9637 Barely beat you. I'm using Tails, for what its worth.
Motoko Kusanagi · 2018-10-01 16:13
>>9668 This is only a good idea if you are wiping the machine each time you use it. I'm assuming this would be in a VM? >>9674 Just use Tor Browser windowed rather than full-screen.
John Rain · 2018-10-01 23:14
>>9723 I don't want to use tor browser for a variety of reasons. How do they spoof screen size?

Not even gonna change the title I am posting from a phone stop me if you can
Morpheus · 2019-08-11 22:32
value goes way down once you disable javascript to be honest
Lady Jessica · 2019-08-12 02:01
>>12640 Is this claiming that 1 in 7 internet users use a browser with javascript disabled? That doesn't seem right.
Mario Rossi · 2019-08-12 11:43
>>12641 I guess the values come from the browsers tested by the website, which makes more sense because I guess it's biased towards people who already give a soykaf about privacy and security

Looks like my setup at my workplace (which forces me to run windows 10) is working
fsociety · 2019-08-12 22:26
i win not using anything special, it's just tor browser on linux
Hong, Guil Dong · 2020-01-27 23:03
>>9726 Im new to internet stuff. Can i make this hidden to people, or no?
Nanashi No Gombe · 2020-01-27 23:47
>>15486 I assume that's just your exit. No you can't hide that, that's what you're hiding behind. Tor goes like this when connecting to the open internet: (you)-->(guard node)-->(middle node)-->(exit node)-->(destination you're connecting to) The guard doesn't know your exit or your destination, the middle doesn't know your ip or your destination, and the exit doesn't know your ip or your guard. If you're connecting to a site using https the guard can't read your traffic. If you're connecting to an onion service this doubles, with the service running its own 3 hop circuit and there is an extra node between the two circuits in the middle. So there's actually 7 hops between you and the onion service.
Splicer · 2020-01-28 01:17
>>15486 Yes, you can connect to a VPN or SOCKS server on someone's home network after Tor and have a legit most innocent looking IP, it's not easy, impolite and considered illegal, and you'll have to use a normal looking browser to fool most sophisticated spying technologies. All Tor relays and exit nodes are publicly known and Tor users are bullied around on the net based on arbitrary IP scores that end up on various "anti-spam" blacklists. >>15492 Text fields are crap for visualizing network tunnels, your schematic doesn't explain how and what each node sees in a simple way.
Emmanuel · 2020-01-28 01:32
>>15501 >exit nodes are publicly known Technically. Practically, switching your exit node a few times will usually get you past a Tor block.
Random · 2020-01-28 02:57
>>15502 Picking the freshest of the fresh might work against blacklists that weren't updated for a while, if only websites don't identify Tor browser through gazillion other fingerprints, usually a mismatch of Windows 7 user agent and exit node SYN belonging to Linux is a greatest red flag.
Nguoi La · 2020-01-28 09:20
>>12654 6.06 here, though I'm not quite sure why. Perhaps because I'm on a 32bit laptop. I wonder if the number would be even lower if I used a bridge.
Lain Iwakura · 2020-01-30 06:50
10.96 bits, js disabled.

>you do not honor companies that pinky promise to not track you, thats bad! god i hate the eff
Donna Hawthorne · 2020-09-29 08:41
>>19686 fun fact, the "do not track" checkmark is also used for fingerprinting
Yamaoto Toshi · 2020-09-29 12:07
I don't think that is what all websites see of you and your browser. I don't have any source but AFAIK only 3.5% of websites employ heavy fingerprinting, mainly for fraud prevention. I am running Tor Browser with safest security settings so my results will similar to other Tor Browser users in this thread.
