Browser Fingerprints, Fonts, Resolution....

[Play]

So Amazon can track these:
Browser fingerprint,
fonts,
screenresolution,
browser type...
(is there anything else to this list?)

So essentially we should be keeping all of these things different to one another for each device we use to connect to the account?

keep java and javescript off

they can link internet so use a dongle or new IP address or VPN from 24vc

they can track username of computer and similar items, and similar usernames..

Possibly they can link accounts using postal tracking codes too i,.e where shippsed from e.g same post office?

It's hard to guess what they are actually tracking but any website can track:

• your real IP via WebRTC if it's enabled
• resilient cookies (google what's that)
• canvas fingerprint
• fonts fingerprint
• enable plugins (which in sum create own fingerprint)

and much more

take a look into http://multiloginapp.com
I had a long talk with their support and I was flabbergasted by how easy it is to track down a regular user in internet.

instead of making long lists of what could be tracked you can simply use different operating systems and browsers , eventually you want to be tracked but do not want to be linked , these are 2 totally different things

If setting up yourself and you aren't using a bank issued debit card is going to be the charge card added to Amazon.

It has become a lot tougher on Amazon but adapting quickly to changes is key.

Sorry if I didnt make it clear before, but I was trying to identify the factors that could be linked across accounts on different machines. i.e. if you have two machines with same fonts, same resolution, same OS, same products, same.... etc., this could easily link both accounts. Thanks for everyone's contribution so far, if there are any more things feel free to add...

UA controls is a firefox add-on, you can vary your user string with it on different user screens....the only thing it does not change is resolution.
