Browser fingerprinting is where JavaScript or other means are used to scrape uniquely identifying information from the browser metadata and functions such as how it draws a canvas object. In it's latest release Apple will defeat browser fingerprinting by making all Mac users look alike to advertisers and websites that use fingerprinting to track users. Apple can afford to do this as it doesn't have skin in the online advertising game.

No longer being updated for Palemoon, unfortunately. Doesn't mean it won't work fine for a while but known bugs will absolutely pile up over time.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.
