fingerprint2.js getting blocked by AdBlockers

[amuagarwal]

just a quick update fingerfrint2.js getting blocked by AdBlockrs

Static filter /fingerprint2.js found in:
EasyPrivacy

[RobertJGabriel]

Or change the file to fp.js will also pass it

Currently doing this only. Even thinking to put few line of code that push new filename every week or month so in feature even if anyother file name get blocked, I not need to worry about renaming manually.

Or you can place the fingerprint code inside your existing js files and mix everything together

I think this is not an issue, easy to avoid blocking.

@amuagarwal What blockers are you talking about?

fingerprint2.min.js from cdnjs is not blocked by Adblock Plus, at least in my tests.

[amuagarwal]

the ad blocker with wich i tried are uBlock Origin and its all variant. By changing filename it works.

Or i say adblockers which are using "EasyPrivacy" filter use blocking the "fingerpint.js"

Confirmed blocked by Adblock

renaming to random filename makes no difference, ex: KjUS3hZzvo6C.min.js

May you try to obfuscate ?

e.g. Brave browser drop fingerprinting methods like webgl and canvas!!! not only fingerprint2.js file name.
