They are Coming For Your Data
(4 min read w/ memes)
Oracle is behind the scenes on many Big Tech websites, they are in the business of reselling your data,
They track you across devices and sell which devices are you, using fingerprints. This is not crazy conspiracy theory, but well known court cases,
Google has a similar method to sell your sensitive personal data (across all websites using their JavaScript, including Captchas) through a Cookie, tied to your fingerprint. This is illegal in Europe, because it violates GDPR, but they get away with it because of political influence.
Fingerprints can include Screen size, timezone, browser version, and 70+ other factors. This is very hard to fool this without blocking, and many websites and services won’t let you block everything.
Mullvad’s Browser is Weak.
Mullvad Browser relies upon Letterboxing to hide your screen size. Letterboxing adds or subtracts a little bit of padding, to lie that your screen size is the same as everyone else.
But there are a few ways around this, including having your device render graphics to see it’s not real. In fact, Fingerprint-com-Pro openly sells fingerprinting through Letterboxing. Look at the last line of their ad:
Fingerprint-Pro JavaScript, which is worth 80 million dollars, is shilled on hundreds of websites. And then Big Tech will pick this data up as well, with similar systems, to rake in billions. This makes fingerprinting effective, since then they all share data with each other,
Easy Solution:
Our app launches isolated second graphical environments that realistically creates a new Screen Display Size, and matches your timezone to the IP address.
No Way to Detect
From inside it, there’s no way to detect this fake environment.
The only other way to do this type of deception is virtual machines, but ironically Oracle makes VirtualBox. The exact company that you’re trying to deceive, and the copy-paste isn’t open source.
All VMs are a pain in the ass to setup and slower. Unlike a virtual machine, our app doesn’t slow you down or consume extra resources. So you can have many at once.
