they are just warning other readers who might read your comment and think “oh I should spoof timezone and language too”. To those readers: don’t spoof these yourself, find a browser that has fingerprint resistance on by default, like Tor or Mullvad Browser, and don’t change the defaults. The goal is to blend into a crowd of users with the same fingerprint
Ah ok, sorry I read that as correcting me and got confused. But yes, you are right, it is a fingerprint, the point is to just share as much of your fingerprint as possible with other users to make it hard to differentiate you.
My comment was about how the OP website has a line that claims that the reported timezone/language is the “truth” rather than my IP address, and I was just pointing out that that wasn’t the case.
