I get all check marks, including Fingerprinting. Past that it is above my pay grade. Using it you just experiment until you g"figure" out how little you allow. It is not perfect, but I feel good about blocking a lot of tracking crap. If I turn off Noscript, I do NOT pass the Fingerprinting. TorBrowser also passes with all checks.

... I just tried on my iPhone with Firefox and DisconnectMe set with block FingerPrinting in Default mode and it does not pass on Fingerprinting, passes the rest. With DisconnectMe in Aggressive mode, the browser won't make it to the site. They need to work on that. Fortunately, I do not browse much on my phone.

quote:

Yeah I failed everything on my phone . What is your browsing experience like blocking all that stuff in the fingerprinting section? Surely you have to allow some level of local/session storage for authentication not to get messed up from page to page when signed into an account, or access to your device max resolution to get served the right rendering of a site, just to name a couple.

ETA: I'm very much pro Firefox/Edge as competition drives innovation and keeps everyone honest to a degree.
