🔄 Compare Fingerprints
Evaluate your browser's privacy level by checking if the identifier changes each time you open the browser, after clearing data, or in incognito mode.
If you consistently get a unique identifier each time (🟢), it's a positive indicator for privacy. However, if the identifier remains constant (🔴), it's a potential risk to your privacy, making you more easily trackable.
