I’d like to suggest improving Brave’s built-in fingerprinting protection to better safeguard user anonymity. Despite using the Brave Detection Block (BDB) and Random User Agent (UA) extensions, I was consistently tracked by whatsmybrowser.com even with:
-JavaScript deactivated
-Incognito mode enabled
-Zero cookies allowed
-Aggressive tracking block and fingerprinting block enabled
This led me to believe that the browser is still revealing system information, which can’t be fully mitigated with third-party extensions alone. To enhance user privacy, I propose integrating a solution that:
-Randomizes the announced system information
-Includes a robust built-in BDB
-Utilizes a random UA for each browsing session
-Implement a more robust fingerprinting protection system that addresses all known fingerprinting techniques
This integrated approach would provide a more comprehensive defense against fingerprinting and tracking attempts.
The main extensions I’m using to protect my broswing seems not sufficient to cover this problem:
Brave Detection Block
Random User-Agent (Swithcer)
Unfortunately, the UBlock Origin distributed by brave stopped working on Brave and I reported it HERE.
I hope you will adress this issue in the next updates!
