    I tried turning them all off and nothing changed. Same result with the Duck Duck Go browser set on Android. Unique fingerprint. And I have no extensions. I wonder if my VPN is part of the fingerprint. I did read a lot of the explanation of what fingerprints you, but I didn’t see VPN in there. I should do a search on that page to see.
