IIRC that is what https://jshelter.org/ does.

> "What JShelter configuration should I pick?

https://jshelter.org/faq/#what-jshelter-configuration-should... :

First, see our blog post. Consult also other blog posts and other questions in this FAQ.

If you want to have the same fingerprint as many users, We suggest going for Tor Browser (do not install JShelter in Tor Browser). If you want to make cross-site fingerprinting linkage hard, go for the Recommended JShelter level. If you want better protection for the real data at the cost of having the same fingerprint on different sites, go for the Strict JShelter level. Keep NBS active. If you want to detect and prevent fingerprinting attempts, use FPD.

Thanks. I tried this on Firefox for Android and each time I close the browser and load the page my fingerprint ID is different. So it seems to work. Have you had any sites break with this extension installed?
