but I read it can even fake what extensions are installed, reducing fingerprinting, but maybe providing another vector? we'll see...
Yeah it sounds promising in the surface , but I heard that for privacy and security the more different you look the easier is to know who you are.
that is what tor browser is recommending, but they refuse to bundle any ad blocker for different reasons which make sense. but I can't browse with ads, I need uBlockOrigin...
so my thoughts are, if you install any extension you become more unique among tor browser users, and you have same uniqueness for all pages/tabs you load.
what if you appear unique every time you load any page in any tab?
