[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 823865, post: 861719"] In some sites, blocking just one fingerprint technique just break the whole site pages, so useless to even try in the first place. Scripblockers are meant to block scripts in low-reputation/suspicious sites. i beg to differ on this particular point, if you visit a malicious page, the first attack is just a malicious script injecting code in your browser/memory or upload a malicious file in your system. Modern Threat Actors don't waste time and resources studying each visitor system unless the in rare case they target a particular individual or small group. Today, they work by batch to maximize revenues and minimize time and resource cost. Hackers won't try anymore to break through your router and firewall doing the good'ol historical ping and portscan with Netcat and Nmap or whatever technique it was in the 80-90's. Data Entry/Spear Phishing, Social Engineering, malicious link redirection, weaponized emails; those are modern hacker attack vectors and way faster and easier. Fingerprinting isnt a method widely used by threat actors but mostly by marketers. [/QUOTE]
