When you've #privacy #RedPilled so hard, you look up the most common browser resolutions and change your kwin rules to always make your new #LibreWolf windows to be that size (after getting the size right with a "what is my browser size" website since the browser doesn't report the room taken up by the chrome.

AFAIR among other "fingerprinting resistance" about:config prefs there's one that makes the browser report a preset resolution โ€” no need to change actual Window size ๐Ÿ˜
I believe it exists even in stock Firefox, but I can't recall its name.

@m0xee @rl_dane

Be careful. It is very easy to make counterproductive changes:

Reporting a preset resolution makes the fingerprinting more uniq than not touching it at all since it would be possible to detect that the value is faked. So +1 bit of entropy.

Yeah, true โ€” same story as with Do Not Track header. In theory it's a good thing โ€” when used in good will, in reality it's another fingerprinting device ๐Ÿ˜–
