      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.

                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.
