#60: Firefox: Don't increase fingerprint by adding "Fedora" to user agent -------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: genodeftest | Owner: Status: new | Priority: minor Component: General | Resolution: Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------- Comment (by smooge): Your first paragraph says that if we don'the do x we don't value privacy at all... which comes across as absolutist. If that is what you mean then I can only say that the only absolute privacy is if we don't allow the user to connect to any network. Because anything less than that is going to leak data. What the isp is looking for is how many people are coming to their services with a Fedora browser so that they can tell if their investment in giving servers we put our proxies are worth it. Pretty much every site who does some sort of sponsorship has increasingly voiced this need. I am not saying that we should do this for this reason or that we should fear the consequences for not doing so. However we should prepare for them. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/council/ticket/60#comment:12> council <https://fedorahosted.org/council> Fedora Council Public Tickets _______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The Fedora Project's mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community.
