The internet knows a lot about you. Without asking for a single permission, any page you visit can read everything below straight from your browser. This is your current digital fingerprint.

A cookie is something stored on your machine. A tag is something that runs: a script loaded from another company, free to report what it sees. It needs no cookie to be useful to them, because the request itself carries your IP address, your browser, and the address of the page you are reading. That is enough to know you were here. This page runs no analytics and no tag manager, but it is not innocent either: the list above is real, and every name on it learned something about you just now.

12 / extensions

looking…

browser extensions this page can see, found without a permission prompt

Nothing here asked your browser a question it could refuse. Extensions announce themselves by editing the page or leaving objects on it: a wallet publishes an injection point, a password manager plants a button, a blocker quietly removes anything that looks like an advert. Any site you open can read the same traces, which is how a page knows you hold crypto or which password manager guards your accounts.

Every panel above is a signal, and none of them needed a cookie. Taken together they work as a name tag: the same machine answers the same way every visit, so clearing cookies, opening a private window and logging out change nothing.

Canvas fingerprinting is the sharpest of them. A page draws into a canvas you never see, reads the pixels back and hashes them. Nothing is stored on your device; what identifies you is how your machine draws, down to its GPU, its driver, the way it smooths type and the fonts it has. The same trick works on audio and on your graphics stack.

Brave randomises these values per site, Firefox can return uniform ones, and Tor Browser blocks the reads outright. That is why a blocked hash earns points in the privacy score above.

16 / fonts on this machine

…

found without a permission prompt, by drawing text in each font and measuring how wide it came out

One of the strongest signals here. The set reflects your operating system, your language, and every application that ever installed a typeface, so an unusual list narrows you down fast.
