I would like to understand which extensions or add-ons are detected by webpages that want to fingerprint a user. For example, I assume that things that interact with the end page (like adblockers) can be detected but, is it the same for aaaall extensions I have installed on my browser?
I have an extension on Firefox that opens bookmarks on a new tab instead on the same, or another one that is a little pop-up for currency conversion. …
adblockers add-ons browser can end extensions fingerprint page privacy things understand
