- Developers testing browser automation and fingerprint behavior
- Worth noticing
- The project reports both passing checks and remaining detection signals, including anomalies on some Linux personas.
Field notes
The launch example accepts a fingerprint seed, a platform persona, and an optional SOCKS5 proxy; the page says timezone and locale follow the proxy exit. It also shows sample Windows values for the user agent, NVIDIA renderer, screen dimensions, fonts, voices, and locale. The benchmark section records test dates and contexts, while acknowledging that some automated runs still raise detection signals.
