How fingerprint checks connect profiles

Font lists can provide 9.45 bits of entropy and distinguish 35% of measured devices. This guide explains the signals inside a fingerprint, our baseline measurements and which surfaces should remain unmodified.

Audio fingerprints and device signals

Audio variation is still tied to the site origin rather than the profile. We show where this appears in NimbusX, how to account for it today and what an engine-level fix requires.

Proxies that cause the browser to hang

Chromium cannot authenticate to SOCKS5 proxies and some proxies stall on CONNECT requests with a Host header. Here is how the built-in relay handles both cases and why NimbusX checks location before launch.

What open checks show

Seven detectors, rated 100 out of 100 on engine 154.0.8037.58. What everyone checks, why TLS cannot be faked from JavaScript and why pixelscan is calculated manually.

Mobile fingerprints without a phone

An Android profile on a desktop computer received Iphey's Trustworthy verdict. We document the Pixel 7 chipset mismatch that led us to remove a hand-maintained device corpus, plus six tests that show the remaining desktop limits.

Profiles from code and AI tools

The dashboard, CLI, API and MCP share one service layer. The guide covers REST profile creation, safe automation and a working MCP configuration.

Consistency matters more than variety

A pool of 100 to 300 common device configurations is usually enough. We explain why uncommon hardware is easier to spot and review three inconsistencies caught by the validator before release.
