How can I anonymize my browser useragent, yet still be counted as a FF/Ubuntu user?
- by Rory
I read about EFF's Panopticlick project to see how unique your webbrowser's headers are. I would like to anonymize that a bit.
My current User Agent is
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20100106 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.7
I would like to make that more anonymous, however I still wanted to be counted as a Firefox and Ubuntu user.
How can I change my User Agent in Firefox?
What should I change it to so that it's less unique, but will be counted as a Firefox user and a Ubuntu user on web analytics software?
I know that there is no guarantee that I will be counted a Firefox/Ubuntu user, just something that 'works most of the time' would be sufficent.
