    Yeah I got the same result.

    I wonder in the fingerprint is a spoof and the result is a false positive? Because Mozilla says there is fingerprint protection in Firefox.

      Your hunch is correct, it is a false positive. Firefox uses a bunch of fingerprints across thousands of users, which poisons the tracking data, rendering it useless.

        Ah? Good! I was trying to find more info on how it works behind the scenes but couldn’t find anything. Do you happen to have a source?

      I seem to get that same result on iPhone for Firefox, Safari and Brave

      edit: see original reply

      Firefox Focus still has “strong” result.

      I get “Partial Protection” on Chrome and two generic named browsers, and a flat-out “No” for Opera Mini

      Before anyone asks “why” about anything listed here, I have to test webpages for compatibility across browsers. Having them installed is the only way to do that.

      My results were skewed because I was testing through a pihole, switched to mobile and got OP’s result.
