I have read a thread at the JonDos forum about browser footprints. A browser is not only identified by the user-agent, it is possible to use the accepted language, the accepted content, accepted charsets...
To create a highly anonymous group, many user should use the same settings for HTTP header values. You may check your browser at: https://www.jondos.de/de/anontest# At the page you will see the recommended settings. A developer of JonDos wrote, they are in contact with the tor dev team about this. Is it true? I can not find anything about this at torproject.org. In Firefox / Iceweasel you may set all recommendations at about:config intl.charset.default utf-8 intl.accept_charsets * intl.accept_languages en network.http.accept.default */* add a new string value to the configuration: general.useragent.override Mozilla/5.0 Gecko/20070713 Firefox/2.0.0.0 and use some plugins like RefControl, CookieSafe, NoScript.... For Konqueror I think, it is only possible, to set the following values in $HOME/.kde/share/config/kio_httprc Language=en SendUserAgent=true UserAgent=Mozilla/5.0 Gecko/20070713 Firefox/2.0.0.0 SendReferrer=false More options possible? Are there recommendations by others? Karsten N.
