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.

~~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.
