    Acording to https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/ , this doesn't work. However, if you remove/disable this addong and enable privacy.resistFingerprinting on about:config, you will get a partially blocked result. Also, I don't see any fingerprint icon when the addon is enable.

    Having a unique fingerprint does not mean you are trackable: https://canvasblocker.kkapsner.de/faq/#uniqueFingerprint

    The fingerprint icon shows up in the address bar unless you disabled notifications.

    Works correctly and has many settings for a detail option

    Really spoofs the digital footprint.

    Dear developer! Add-on has an issue. Faking=>Random number generator=> 'persistent' and 'constant' options don't work both! Please fix that or maybe I have to apply some browser settings?
    Also preset parameters option doesn't appear.
    I use Android versions of Firefox nightly or Fennec.


    UPD: Pls upload ver 1.10 here. Thanks in advance

    I can reproduce the rng problem on Fennec (but only there - not in desktop Firefox). Created https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/654 for that.

    For the present parameters I do not exactly know what you mean. Please open an issue at https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues.

    for an average user like me it needs approximately an hour to understand the different settings and its reactions. however after i tested everything with https://amiunique.org/fp i'm pretty happy with the results.

    Works, but slows some sites to a crawl (i.e., eBay). Settings are hard to understand. Unclear how to whitelist a site.

    For eBay you can check the discussion on https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/555 and https://github.com/kkapsner/CanvasBlocker/issues/563

    The best way to whitelist a site is over the little fingerprint icon in the URL bar.

    Optimizing the settings is on my todo but it's hard as I'm not a UX/UI person...
