The state of anti-fingerprinting on all chromium is very very bad. Trace does have some protections which beat out long dead Scriptsafe (2017) but it's still far from where firefox based browsers are. It's quite sad actually.

You do fool https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/ and have the only working user agent/screen resolution for chromium and this test.

But just go check out: https://abrahamjuliot.github.io/creepjs/index.html

Almost all protections are uncloaked and you are easily fingerprinted. If you are going to rewrite keep this in mind and maybe try to mitigate.

Thanks for bringing this abrahamjuliot test to my attention. Because Brave is my default browser, what do you recommend for anti-fingerprinting? Or if I move to Firefox, what anti-fingerprinting to you recommend there?
