#fingerprinting

ok #infosec #browser #android folks: i have a weird thing happening with #localization: even though i have android set to EN_CA, it looks like sites are reaching for info of my keyboard to set ―what they think― is my actual language. this is a multilingual keyboard that i use to write in 4 languages. the fuckers think am monolingually french. i thought this was only a Google/Youtube fuck up but now Trackt is doing it too. WTAF?!?!? how can i block this stupid #fingerprinting?

https://www.wired.com/story/websites-can-now-spy-on-you-through-your-hard-drive/ Sites have a new way to spy on their visitors: by measuring subtle interactions with their solid-state drives. The technique, named FROST (fingerprinting remotely using OPFS-based SSD timing), allows sites to monitor other sites a visitor is viewing and what apps are open on their devices. #Privacy #Tech #FROST #Security #Fingerprinting

sitebehavior.org "a free, opensource scanner that opens any public website in a controlled browser and records what it actually does, not what its privacy policy says it does. Every request, cookie, storage key, and tracker, with the exact scan conditions attached." #privacy #tracker #cookies #browser #fingerprinting

every now & then i curiously toggle privacy.resistFingerprinting on in about:config, then despairingly off again about 42 seconds later. though unhappy about it i could prolly make myself get used to it buggering my desired window size, & possibly even it buggering my indicated timezone [i do understand the privacy logic of both]. however i simply cannot abide it forcing all sites into light mode -- it is very uncomfy during days, but unbearably painful at nights. why oh why, mozilla, can't you consider this basic accessibility issue? #firefox #fingerprinting #accessibility #privacyresistFingerprinting #dropbearpooterising #dropbearinterwebz #linuxwomen
