@techinherstep: I explore how websites track you through browser fingerprinting, a technique that collects hundreds of data points about your device to create a unique digital profile. I demonstrate a free tool from the Electronic Frontier Foundation called Cover Your Tracks that shows exactly how identifiable your browser is. I test this tool on Chrome, which shows a unique fingerprint that websites can use to identify you, and then on Brave browser, which randomizes your fingerprint to prevent tracking. I explain the key difference: while Chrome hands over real device details, Brave feeds websites false information each session, making it impossible to build a consistent profile on you. This is why the browser you use matters. #dataprivacy #browsertips #googlechrome #d#DidYouKnowtiktoklearningcampaign

I checked Chrome running on my iPhone and passed, I configured Chrome with all the privacy & security settings available and so far I’m good. Hopefully, Google is not misleading people as it did with Incognito.

I test this using Google and it says that I have strong protection against web tracking and my browser has a randomized fingerprint … thank goodness for that because I don’t need any stress today lol as always thank you for sharing. Great information.

Thanks for sharing this, would using private browsing or a VPN change the amount of data being shared?

Heads up for all using DDG as a browser believing it to be private, they revised their privacy policies in 2022 and they are now as dirty as Google.
