Enabling Screen Resolution Protection Drastically Lowers A Users Anonimity #35

Closed Eriksh closed 4 years ago

Eriksh commented 4 years ago

Color depth on screen resolution protection should be set to a static 24 bits like most other PC and phone OS's. Due it it being currently configured as random, the user stands out and easily traced.

Resolution Issue

I'll add an option to disable this setting in an update soon.

Thanks for raising this
