I finally made a Lemmy account just to comment on this 😅
When this option is active, of course your fingerprint is unique because of how it works.
Every time a website fingerprints you with this option turned on, firefox makes sure that the ID is as unique as possible, so no correlation can happen. 😊 Verify this by visiting that site two times and check the hash to make sure it change between the two requests.
So does Firefox make this more unique or something? I didn’t know this was a thing but I’m interested in privacy and it sound like something I should be looking into.
