Unable to login to GoDaddy control panel
Cannot login to GoDaddy control panel with add-on enabled.
Description
When trying to login to the GoDaddy control panel (ugh) I get a pop-up telling me "Your browser is a bit unusual. Try disabling ad blockers and other extensions, enabling javascript, or using a different web browser" Using a fresh Firefox profile and only installing CanvasBlocker, using default settings reproduces the problem. With CanvasBlocker disabled, login is successful.
Expected Behavior
Able to login to GoDaddy control panel Die a little inside that my customer is using GoDaddy
Current Behavior
Login attempts result in web page reporting that it's unable to login due to an adblocker, javascript or browser fault.
Possible Solution
Convince customer to move to a reputable web host

Can you log in if you whitelist GoDaddy? Which APIs are protected when visiting the control panel?
It seems it's the screen API (outerHeight specifically). You can whitelist godaddy for that API and you will be able to log in.
But I have to dig deeper what happens there. Apart of a small bug I found in the code I have to dig deeper to see what they are doing exactly.
Yup I see the same here. Oddly when I was first looking into this, whitelisting didn't appear to work. It does now.
Their fingerprinting code is highly obfuscated - so no luck until now how they detect that the outerWidth and outerHeight are faked.
