Hi, is there an option (like TOR has) to block canvas fingerprinting? This is bad, way worst than cookies! - these days, privacy is more important than ever.

There are some extensions for this purpose, but they are not perfect and also have to give unknown developers access to a lot of stuff..

Thank you.
