I often see this stuff and every result from every person I've seen is that fingerprints are unique. Even with DNT enabled, tools like uBlock, privacy badger (an EFF tool!), etc people are still unique. How does one actually become not unique? I'm on Apple hardware, so I can't imagine my hardware is unique (other than silicon lottery) and using Firefox. Testing in Safari shows "nearly unique" (1 bit difference than my FF results) so I gotta imagine that near is myself.

How does one actually make themselves non-unique?

And can we make things more transparent? How many bits is enough?
