well shoot my mobile failed that test lmao
I got 17.5 on my Desktop Firefox lol
I got 17,49 as well!
I got exactly that number too, but also when I looked at the detailed results section lots of it was incorrect. It got that I was on some sort of Linux and using some sort of FF variant, but things like time zone, plugins, screen resolution and system fonts were all wrong.
So sending out 17.49 bits of largely identifying bullshit is still okay I think lol.
Could it be that the browser shares false information on purpose?
