That was probably me. You can check it here among other scary fingerprint stuff https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs/
Wow nice. Any opinions on how these fingerprinting evaluators compare?

Am I Unique?:

Sad a pretty stock iPhone that’s blocking via some filterlists and using iCloud Private Relay (a “VPN”) is so detectable! Should be so many browsers appearing similar but there’s always this & that that mean I’m unique.
Just tried amiunique.org and got this...
"Yes! You are unique among the 2561164 fingerprints in our entire dataset."
So much for using VPN and "hardened" Mull browser 😅
Isn’t it disappointing :(
It really makes it feel like we're all just wasting time here on a futile effort trying to get digital privacy. Clearly the steps I've taken make absolutely no fucking difference, so it's not really worth the hassle TBH.
