Anything beyond defaults will give you a permanent unique browser fingerprint, as ublock lists are detectable in the DOM

Just make another user profile and dont put a vpn on it (assuming android)

Also it still knows you're using vpn because split tunnel still uses the VPN provider's DNS server, so sounds like they are also checking who you DNS provider is.

They sound like complete scumbags. Switch banks lol.

I've never once seen a valid argument of why someone should not use a VPN.

This. They dont want you to make new disposable accounts.

Mullvad browser is the best i think

I have been doing fingerprint research for several years. I've done countless builds with various browsers, configurations, extensions, and strategies. (Yes i have too much time for this).

Here is what I've concluded. I hope this helps someone.

CoverYourTrack is crap, plain and simple. Your best option will always be to randomize. Always. You will not "blend in". I don't care if you run Google Chrome on Windows 10 or Safari on iOS, JavaScript exposes way too much info, you will always have a unique fingeprint. Just go play around with fingerprint.com on some normie browser/os setups and you will see what i mean.

You must randomize all the values that you see on sites like browserleaks.com. canvas, audio context, webgl hash, clientrects, fonts, etc etc. I'd also make sure you are proxifying all your browsers and using random locations. You can do this with Brave somewhat, which has some randomization stuff in it. You can do this with browser extensions as well. Ungoogled chromium also has some randomization for canvas and clientrects i think

There are only a couple options outside of this that I recommend, in the realm of "generic fingerprint" solutions. TOR browser (they have been on the front lines of this for many years). And also Mullvad browser, which, despite its generic fingerprint goal, seems to also defeat fingerprint.com.

Tldr, if you want the best experience out of the box that is also very usable, just use Mullvad Browser. They are basically the browser i wished for for like a decade.
