Has anyone used these self-proclaimed privacy tools? Found this discussion , mentioned a few tools I am unfamiliar with: Donut Browser Fingerprint Chromium OOP uses them to define a methodology for anti-fingerprint browsing. Though the original post is written for Qubes, it should hypothetically …

Never heard of these tools. Thanks for sharing though, will check ‘em out.

I think for anything to be truly fingerprint resistant it has to be widely used, otherwise you are fingerprintable as someone who is unusually un-fingerprintable. So, I am fairly skeptical of how useful something like these would actually be even if they are otherwise strong solutions.

On the surface, Fingerprint Chromium seems like a no-go; it’s based on Ungoogled Chromium, and likely inherits its same issues Donut Browser looks more interesting. Claims to randomize your browser fingerprint, akin to Brave’s antifingerprinting techniques. Ill be taking a closer look at it eventua…

Don’t use Fingerprint Chromium; it has a terrible history of updating to newer Chromium releases.

I opened Donut and it is using Camoufox Anti-Detect v135, which I assume refers to Firefox 135, which is out-of-date. It displays Firefox 145 to websites, but about:support clearly shows the true version. I wouldn’t use it. Not saying they have to have one-day security updates but months is just w…

Hi lyricism, what you are describing is the philosophy used by the TOR browser. I’m a big fan of the proejct myself and have used it extensively :stuck_out_tongue: Just to clarify any confusion, both TOR and Donut are anti-detect browser, but TOR does it by making browser identity of every user lo…

Hi, I’m the creator of Donut Browser. Thanks for checking it out! It is true that Camoufox is terribly outdated. This is because its creator is having health problems that prevent them from working on the project right now. As they have planned to return before the end of 2025, I was betting that b…

[image] zhom: but TOR does it by making browser identity of every user look the same This is not true. Tor Browser does not have a single fingerprint, instead it reduces the possible “buckets” you can fall in. [image] zhom: while Donut makes your browser identity look like a different un…

[image] any1: This is not true. Tor Browser does not have a single fingerprint, instead it reduces the possible “buckets” you can fall in. You’re right, I oversimplified—Tor reduces the fingerprint surface to create smaller anonymity sets rather than making everyone identical. I should have b…

Pretty much all of the freemium anti detect browsers export the entire user profile to their servers. People typically use such browsers for fraud. Think of crypto advertisement campaigns fraud, airdrop botting etc. but a browser developer has an ability to defraud the fraudster by stealing metamask…

I’m experiencing the same or similar issues. Previously, the only version that didn’t work was the .AppImage. It wouldn’t run properly, even after following the instructions in the README. Now the new .rpm version also fails to run, although some earlier .rpm versions worked fine.
