    It’s a bit of manual work. Trial and error with just first party scripts, then add specific capabilities to scripts one-by-one

      Best I get is with canvasblocker–without NoScript. At this point I’m not sure this screenshot is not photoshopped.

        We could ask the OP for their NoScript settings.

          in the noscriot settings default is set to “noscript and others” rest turned off, there is also ublock origin set to block 3rd party scripts, firefox fingerprinting settings are turned on

              everything is on default so every sibgle page it loads allows “noscript” and “others” as indicated by the noscript settings

        firefoxes regular fingerprinting protection has canvas blocking try turning that on from about:config. no scrip allows only “noscript” and “others” to loaf by defsult and ublock origin is blocking 3rd psrty javascript.
