On Librewolf i got 16.48 bits of information, on TOR browser 10.32 bits, but on Tails I managed to get only 9.3 bits.
If I tried twice and I got a unique id both times, does it mean Firefox is covering my track ?

if it ran the test again, I'd say yes. but if it just reloads the result page, doesn't mean anything
yeah I was wondering if the tool would show that hit saws this id once already
Idk, but I have the same. Scrolling through the tracking methods the only ones with high uniqueness were hash of canvas fingerprint and hash of webGL for me. According to it I still have strong protection Firefox + ublock on mobile though
It seems like the characteristics of my Android tablet doom me here - I was unique even using Chrome.
