What a browser fingerprint is

Not one value but a combination — canvas, WebGL, audio, fonts, network. Each unremarkable alone, identifying together.

Reading this rating. Scores are computed from published vendor figures read on 2026-08-20, not from private measurement. We do not rate detection resistance, because it cannot be measured honestly from outside — see method.

What actually gets read

A fingerprint is not one value. It is a set of signals collected from your browser and combined into an identifier. Each is unremarkable alone; the combination is what identifies.

Why WebRTC gets its own paragraph

Most fingerprint signals describe your machine. WebRTC can describe your network, and in the wrong configuration it reports a real IP address regardless of what proxy the browser is otherwise using.

That is the failure mode that catches people who assume a proxy alone is enough: the connection routes correctly, and a separate mechanism announces where you actually are. Every antidetect browser in this rating manages WebRTC as part of its profile configuration, which is one of the clearer arguments for using one rather than a proxy plus a normal browser.

What changing a fingerprint does and does not do

Questions

What is a browser fingerprint?
A browser fingerprint is the combination of properties a website can read from your browser — screen size, fonts, graphics rendering, timezone, language, hardware details — which together are often unique enough to identify the same visitor across sessions without cookies.
What makes a fingerprint unique?
Rarely one value. It is the combination. A common screen resolution paired with an unusual font set and a specific GPU rendering signature can be unique among millions, even though no single component is unusual on its own.
Can you delete your browser fingerprint?
No. It is not stored on your machine like a cookie — it is computed from your browser's properties every time a site asks. You can change what those properties report, which is what an antidetect browser does.
Is fingerprinting legal?
Fingerprinting itself is widely used for fraud prevention and analytics. How it is regulated depends on jurisdiction and purpose, particularly under EU privacy rules where consent requirements can apply. We are not lawyers and this is not legal advice.
What is canvas fingerprinting?
A site draws an invisible image using the HTML canvas element and reads back the exact pixels. Tiny differences in GPU, driver and font rendering make the result vary between machines, so the hash of that image becomes an identifier.
