Introduction to Browser Fingerprinting

Tracking techniques like Browser Fingerprinting utilize scripts, which are collections of instructions that tell the user’s browser what to perform, which are required for modern website functionalities. Scripts may discover a lot of information about the user’s device and browser in the background and stitch it together to generate the user’s unique online "fingerprint". This fingerprint may then be used to track you down throughout the internet and across other browser sessions.

These scripts can learn a lot about the user’s device, such as

• Operating system

• Browser

• Software installed on it

• Time zone

• Screen resolution

• All browser extensions installed 

• Graphics card

• Drivers

and other things.
