Scheme flooding vulnerability: how it works and why it is a threat to anonymous browsing
Project mention: When I use Tor browser to play roblox nothing happen. I press green button to start, but as I said, nothing happens. What can I do? | reddit.com/r/TOR | 2022-07-11Because someone figured out that being able to open programs from a browser can be used to track people, and so it was disabled in Tor Browser

I thought it was going to use ETAG based fingerprinting, which I always thought was pretty clever. The etag header is supposed to be used to control caching, so it's typically a hash of the requested resource's content. But, there's no requirement for it to be, so you can generate a unique one, and the client will send it back to you next time you ask for that uri.
The fingerprint sources are here: https://github.com/fingerprintjs/blog-nojs-fingerprint-demo/... Basically some css that uniquely identifies some browsers, then headers like user-agent, language, etc.

dark-knowledge
😈📚 A curated library of research papers and presentations for counter-detection and web privacy enthusiasts.
Browsers are complicated and you won't find a single analysis covering all aspects. For a security analysis Madaidan's blog is a good starting point. For a privacy analysis you need to learn the common tracking methods and which solutions or mitigations are available in which browser (and if they are properly implemented). You could start by learning about the different forms of tracking through state (cookies, cache, storage, ...), which is still one of the most used tracking methods. Of course you also need to check the easy things like telemetry. Then there is fingerprinting which is a huge topic on its own. This is where it's even more fun. You need to start reading research papers, not just one but many and you need to check mitigations used in browsers and their statistical implications (data about this is unfortunately very rare).
