I only just thought of this. I have the same cartoon-y profile pic from a foreign TV show on a bunch of my accounts, I wonder if its unique enough and worth tracking.

I've been using privacy-respecting browsers that are tied down, together with Ad-blockers and stuff for quite some time. And I use Linux. That always singles me out in these browser fingerprinting tests. Most other people just give their data away willingly, so I stand out. Guess you have to pick your poison.
