Browser Fingerprint Shuffler

Browser extension that perturbs common fingerprinting surfaces with deterministic, per-origin noise. It keeps sites functional while nudging canvas, WebGL, audio, and navigator fingerprints so they no longer match a stable profile.

What it does

• Adds low-level noise to canvas readouts and WebGL fingerprints.
• Jitters audio context data to break identical hashes.
• Fuzzes navigator properties (hardware concurrency, device memory, languages).
• Uses a persistent salt stored in chrome.storage.local, with optional per-origin seeds for stable-but-unique noise per site.
• Logs before/after fingerprints when debugging is enabled.
• Example console output in DevTools:

Loading the unpacked extension in Chrome

• git clone or download this folder to your machine.
• Open Chrome and visit chrome://extensions/.
• Toggle Developer mode (top right).
• Click Load unpacked and select the project root (browser-fingerprint-shuffler).
• Ensure the extension is enabled. Open a page and check the DevTools console for the Fingerprint Shuffled... message when hooks run.

Configuration and debug flag

Settings live in core/config.js.

• Toggle debug: true to log storage operations, hook installs, and before/after fingerprint summaries.
• Each surface can be switched on/off (enableCanvasNoise, enableWebGLMasking, enableAudioNoise, enableNavigatorFuzz) and tuned via strength knobs (canvasNoiseStrength, webglJitter, audioNoiseStrength).
• perOriginFingerprint: true derives a different seed per site; set to false for a single global fingerprint across all origins.
• You can also flip fpConfig.debug = true from the DevTools console on a page after load for ad-hoc troubleshooting.

How it works (quick tour)

• core/config.js: runtime toggles and strengths (including debug).
• core/salts.js: persistent salt management via chrome.storage.local.
• core/hash.js / core/prng.js: deterministic seeds and pseudo-random noise.
• content/bootstrap.js: wires salt/seed/noise into fpEnv.
• Hooks (content/hooks_canvas.js, hooks_webgl.js, hooks_audio.js, hooks_navigator.js): apply noise/masking to each surface.
• content/test_fingerprint.js: samples fingerprints before/after hooks; logs when debug is on.
• content/content_main.js: orchestrates hook installation and prints the before/after fingerprint summary.

Verifying it works

• Open any page with the extension enabled.
• In DevTools Console, you should see Fingerprint Shuffled. Before: ... After: ....
• With debug: true, additional [fp] logs show salts, seeds, and sampler outputs.

Notes

• All scripts run as a content script at document_start to intercept early fingerprint reads.
• The project is dependency-free; edits to config take effect after reloading the extension or the tab.
