Something I don’t get is, why try to make all browser look the same when you can do the easier thing and just make each browser session have a new fingerprint?

A unique fingerprint doesn’t matter much if it’s only valid till I close that website, right? So why not change a lot of variables by some small amount to make the data useless?

That’s exactly what my setup does. But like I said, this could in theory lead to you being more trackable
