Comment (by mcs): Replying to [comment:27 boklm]: > A possible issue is that the buildid can be accessed with `navigator.buildID`, which can maybe help for fingerprinting: > https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/buildID We could set avoid that problem bhy setting general.buildID.override to a constant value such as 20000101000000 (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417994). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/19528#comment:28> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
