@mozilla Firefox should make stronger efforts to resist fingerprinting (good progress so far with canvas fingerprinting as a permission, but could go further, such as protecting against window-width fingerprinting etc.), as well as persistent marking such as evercookie.

Is there a list of all the things that website can use to fingerprint you? I'm constantly learning about new ways to fingerprint
@mozilla
@ibmiubu @mozilla Some of the common ones include: Using the width of the window, using the HTML5 canvas to observe the GPU’s behavior, examining plugin or font lists, reading sensors, the User-Agent and IP address, and the headers the browser sends by default.
Evercookie uses HTTP cookies, local storage, session storage, global storage, database storage, IndexedDB, the history list, ETags, the cache, HSTS, window.name, Java, Flash, and Silverlight for cookieing.
