  • AmIUnique

    Learn how identifiable you are on the Internet

  • Not only that, check out amiunique.org. Whenever you browse a website, they can capture comprehensive data about your device like what browser you are using, version number of that browser, operating system, screen resolution, time zone, language, what extensions/add-ons are installed, etc. it can get down to pretty obscure points of data. This is built into web design languages and browsers because there are legitimate uses for a website to ask for some of this data, mainly to tailor the UI to the device, but when you collect and combine all of this data together it makes up a surprisingly unique device "fingerprint." All you can do is trust them to use that data responsibly. But when someone decides to sell that data, people can cross reference your fingerprint with other websites you've visited with the same fingerprint.
