Hardly anyone applies user.js scripts (below 1% of all Firefox users according to the below source), and these user.js scripts create a very different output from what could normally expected from default Firefox. Firefox being unique by default and not defending you against fingerprinting at all is bad, right? It’s bad for sure, but the solution offered is not very sound either. Now, Firefox is unique by default, there is zero fingerprinting protection in a fresh install of Firefox… Not even fingerprinting scripts are being blocked, this is opt-in for its tracking protection by default. Firefox randomizes Canvas while Brave statically disables WebGL, it really depends on the output you mean to protect. There’s also overlap between the two, e.g. You either try to make all instances look the same with the same settings and output (Firefox) or you let all instances randomize (Brave). Fingerprinting is being defeated by all browsers looking the same, at least behaviorally.
