FingerprintJS is a source-available, client-side, browser fingerprinting library that queries browser attributes and computes a hashed visitor identifier from them. Unlike cookies and local storage, a fingerprint stays the same in incognito/private mode and even when browser data is purged. Since FingerprintJS processes and generates the fingerprints from within the browser itself, the accuracy is limited (40% - 60%). For example, when 2 different users send requests using identical (i.e....

Supercookie uses favicons to assign a unique identifier to website visitors. Unlike traditional tracking methods, this ID can be stored almost persistently and cannot be easily cleared by the user. The tracking method works even in the browser's incognito mode and is not cleared by flushing the cache, closing the browser or restarting the operating system, using a VPN or installing AdBlockers. The demo of "supercookie", as well as the publication of the source code of this repository, is...

OPFS is a browser fingerprinting library for creating persistent, unique and long-lasting digital fingerprints without depending on ever-changing variables such as the user agent string commonly used in other browser fingerprinting libraries. As such, the fingerprint does not change most of the time when a user upgrades their browser to the current version. OPFS uses some novel methods not well known before the publishing of this repo that allow the creation of a likely completely unique...

This project is a proof of concept that any website can identify and track you, even if you are using private browsing or incognito mode in your web browser. Many people think that they can hide their identity if they are using private browsing or incognito mode. This project will prove that they are wrong.
