Many people think tracking only happens through cookies. Think again.
π₯ What is Browser Fingerprinting?
Every browser leaves traces:
β Screen resolution & hardware specs
β Installed fonts & add-ons
β Operating system & rendering engine
β Mouse movements & typing patterns
This data is unique enough to identify 99% of users β even without cookies.
β How I protect myself against it:
β
Tor Browser β Obscures fingerprinting parameters
β
Firefox with RFP (Resist Fingerprinting) β Uniform values for all users
β
NoScript & uBlock Origin β Blocks tracking scripts
β
Fake user-agent strings β More anonymity
β‘ Conclusion: Fingerprinting is more powerful than cookies β yet barely known.
