How does it work?

Lots of little pieces of data about your setup. Combined together they create a combination that is extremely unique and allows companies to track you across the web.
Nice
Ideally you want to be not unique though. Being unique means you're easy to track
yeah i've made the same experience. they don't seem to actually store the fingerprint across each site visit? or they do but it changes continuously. in which case, good job firefox ❤️
Interesting. So if it registers your browser as unique every time then it can't link your visits together.
resistfingerprinting go brrrrrr
The entire point is you don't want to be unique. The fact you are is extremely bad.
We are all different
oh no
I've never not been unique in any of those sites....
