    I keep seeing the term fingerprint browser in discussions about privacy and accounts but I do not fully get what it means. How does it work and why would someone need it instead of a regular browser

    This topic comes up more often now because many sites track users in ways that go beyond cookies. Fingerprinting is one of those methods and it affects privacy security and account management. Even if someone is not planning to use special tools it is still useful to understand how browsers can be identified and what data is shared by default.
