It's far better to use this site: fingerprint.com/demo

they are one of the largest actual/commercial vendors of fingerprinting software. their business is to track you.

please try it with brave and post your results. i could be wrong but last time i checked brave failed this test. arkenfox doesn't even allow the tracking to load which I consider a pass although you could argue that just because the results don't load doesn't mean they aren't able to track you in some way
