Daniel, this issue is fixed both for mobile and desktop. The other verifications were also made on X.Y versions since none of the builds in beta, aurora and central are ever X.Y.Z. When they get release, if an X.Y.Z version is released, I will also verify this bug on that version. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/934887 Title: Firefox user-agent string is too unique Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Fix Released Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: As shown on http://panopticlick.eff.org The useragent string "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:10.0.2) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/10.0.2" is too unique and in combination with a fairly unique plugin list this allows browser fingerprint tracking, which is bad for privacy.

Also the Gecko version could be made a bit more generic.
