[QUOTE="TairikuOkami, post: 832809, member: 61892"] I would not say none, but basic to get rid of the most obvious ones, but lets not push it, like canvas and such. Otherwise you might end up like this: [ATTACH type="full" alt="download.jpg"]223687[/ATTACH] Anyone, who wants the real privacy, will use VPN or Tails and will not rely just on extensions, because they ultimately fail on the browser itself. True, like tracking the mouse movement, that is almost as unique as the real fingerprint itself. The way people move mouse while browsing. 1. DNScrypt within the browser, that is pretty much basics for privacy and security. It is not as good as VPN, but it is better than nothing. 2. Blocking port 80 to make sure, webpages will not open resources, which could be easily tracked by ISP, not to mention security as well. 3. Adguard to block an excessive tracking, it can slow down browsing and to block referrers to avoid webpages knowing, where I came from. 4. Cookie-Autodelete to remove first/third party cookies, blocking them cripples some webpages, so they are allowed, but removed ASAP. As far as the internet is concerned, I am not unique at all, I am average, even bellow average. I use the same name and username, all over the place, sometimes even the password. My FB is linked to steam, which is linked to Discord, etc, so I am not sticking out too much. Of course, I do not post my personal details, like the real date of birth, address or phone, but you can freely see, what I like, so can buy me my favorite drink. :D [/QUOTE]
