Fingerprinting is a type of online tracking feature to make unique profile of user computer, software, Browser Extension and Preferences. fingerprinting could be anything, Let’s understand with an example if you have installed any grammar checking browser extension on your browser then you might see grammerly Chrome Extension ads when you browse internet, this happens due to fingerprinting. I thanks to Firefox developers for integrating fingerprinting preventing feature in Mozilla Firefox Browser. Mozilla Firefox is only browser over internet dedicated for user privacy.

If you are a Mozilla Firefox user you will see ‘i’ inside a circle at left of your browser Click on it Go to custom section, here you will get option to block fingerprinting. it may disturb your browsing experience, some website may break. it may slowdown you browsing speed. it is OK not to browse a website which track your activity and create your profile. if you have not installed Firefox.
