Re: [Trisquel-users] Which is it: Abrowser or GNU IceCat?

The fingerprint's OK. Not quite as generic as Tor Browser with scripts  
disabled (something about HTTP_ACCEPT Headers), but more generic than Tor  
Browser with scripts enabled. Even if you disable the cookies, the  
fingerprint's more generic than Tor Browser with scripts enabled.

Of course, it's true that Tor Browser is better, but it seems to me that any  
fear of IceCat's use of Tor in private browsing mode backfiring is unfounded.  
Scripts are forcibly disabled in private browsing mode, and there's no  
obvious way to turn them on; and any cookies stored outside of private  
browsing mode are not available in private browsing mode. Other than  
self-identification as a result of user stupidity, I can't think of any other  
way the use of Tor could be subverted.
