posted 3 years agoNo, it does not spoof font fingerprint. You can find more information and reasoning in https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/200 - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17357016, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Sha-256, 3 years agoPerfoming very nice on my linux machine. Best tool for defending fingerprinting. But can add font fingerprinting protection, if possible
Developer response
posted 3 years agoPlease look at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/200 for reasons why it's not implemented.
There is currently https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/559 open for it again and I will reevaluate it. - Rated 5 out of 5by 🐈すらーぷの妖精, 3 years agoこのアドオンは既定の指紋を変更するのではなく、指紋採取をブロックするものです。
そのため、eff には一意であるとの表示が出ます。勘違いしているユーザが多いですが、このアドオンは機能しており、最高のアドオンになっています - Rated 5 out of 5by AHKM, 3 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Expert Plus, 3 years agoSorry, but I did detected that this extension does making me not a privacy person. So, in Firefox and LibreWolf (which I using as my default) with this extension coveryourtracks.eff.org says that I have a unique fingerprint (which is sad to hear) and that my browser isn't asking for DNT policies. But without this addon my browser is asking for DNT policies and my fingerprint isn't uniqie. I'm happy without extension........

posted 3 years agoHaving a unique fingerprint does not mean you are trackable: https://canvasblocker.kkapsner.de/faq/#uniqueFingerprint
DNT should not be affected by CanvasBlocker. But I'm not completely sure what you mean by "DNT policies". Please open an issue at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues with the details to reproduce it. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 17250552, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by PhoenixCausesOof, 3 years agoIndispensable extension for anyone who seeks for privacy. Bad reviews are generally old, and the extension has improved over time.
I suggest warning users that they have some APIs that are disabled (by the user in about:config). This can render CanvasBlocker “weaker”, although this is not fundamentally an issue with it.
Like if you have `dom.webaudio.enabled` disabled in about:config. This can make you more unique and thus “fingerprintable”.Developer response
posted 3 years agoI created https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/592 to track if this is even possible. These flags may not be readable by a webExtension. - Rated 5 out of 5by Shaqtin', 3 years ago
