Well, Firefox did suddenly start blocking fingerprinting on a site I regularly visit after a restart which did update Firefox.

“Have you ever heard of browser fingerprinting? It’s okay if you haven’t, since almost nobody else has ever heard of it, either.”

Oh good. That solves that problem.

I block the lot, tightest settings, works well

just occasionally a site is rude enough to tell me i’m using incognito or private browsing, and the miners or whatever on the sites bomb the browser looking for responses, my browser doesn’t even murmur a sorry

yeah it’s aloof, antisocial
