Switch to Brave Browser Reason #39: Make tracking through browser language and fonts harder

Why this matters

Language preferences and installed fonts can help identify a browser even when cookies are absent. Privacy is easier to defend before this information is collected than after it has spread.

The protection

Brave limits or randomizes some language and font signals used in fingerprinting.

Take action

Keep fingerprint protection active and avoid assuming cookie deletion alone resets your identity. Brave reduces common tracking, but a site you sign in to still knows what you do there. Ordinary browsing also reveals your IP address to the destination.
