My GPU identification is off by about a decade but it did get the brand right

Seriously. My laptop was manufactured last year, and the site identified it as a Radeon R9 200 series. That was a top-of-the-line GPU...back in 2014.

Same ID for mine. Are you running Firefox? Maybe that's a lie it tells to fingerprinters.

I am running Firefox. Firefox does not report you GPU according to the site, instead returning a generic "Mozilla" GPU.

More of you should be running current Firefox. It actually has serious engineering work going into protecting you from web tracking.

I work for a team entirely dependent on web tracking for Fraud prevention. The things Firefox does work to protect you and make our job harder. They genuinely make it harder for websites to track you.

Other things that genuinely help: Apple private relay. Some VPNs. Generated unique credit cards.
