  • storage-partitioning

    Client-Side Storage Partitioning

  • Firefox 85 introduced "network partitioning" in January 2021, which isn't "man years." 1 2 Network partitioning is only a subset of what needs to be isolated regarding user agent states, see the ongoing standardization of Client-Side Storage Partitioning by the W3C Privacy Community Group (a group with 60+ participants from Google). So the "proper cache and storage partitioning" is far from finished, standardized, or proper.

  • dark-knowledge

    😈📚 A curated library of research papers and presentations for counter-detection and web privacy enthusiasts.

  • Maybe I am. It is difficult to say, since there are not many real world studies with a relatively unbiased dataset. Usually I just read the papers and don't get access to the collected fingerprints to run a comparison to my own browser setups. And then in a lot of the bigger studies like "hiding in the crowd" the fingerprinting techniques are not state-of-the-art. This is a pretty good list of research: https://github.com/prescience-data/dark-knowledge
