Oh fair enough, I’ll re-examine some of that information. I don’t think I’m completely wrong. Advice on not installing extensions to avoid adding to the fingerprint comes from the official Mullvad FAQ. The philosophy of making all users look the same to blend in is something inherited from Tor Browser.
Mullvad also uses resist fingerprinting, yes canvas is unique every attempt. The EFF cover your tracks test doesn’t penalise you for it, if you’re coming up as unique there it’s not because of that (some tests out there do though and Mullvad fails them). Having a randomised canvas itself may count as one data point I guess.
