Apple wont give gyro data but firefox will, firefox wont give battery data but chrome will. Everyone gives screen size and density data.
Why are these data points not discussed with privacy?

I have no answer to your question, but if you’re looking for alternatives, hardened Firefox forks such as LibreWolf, Fennec, IronFox etc all have varying degrees of anti-fingerprinting features. I know for sure that Fennec withholds battery and gyro data, but gives timezone data, while IronFoxcan spoof the latter with a toggle and reports a spoofed screen size

I must try these, the only one I found was fennec, it did give accurate gyro information.
Weird, my Fennec must’ve had additional configurations I forgot about since it didn’t give out that info. I uninstalled it for IronFox so I can’t check it! I mentioned LibreWolf but that’s on desktop, so no gyro info there
I wonder what else the desktkps see. Where do you get ironfox?
IronFox from here:
https://github.com/ironfox-oss/IronFox
desktop should “leak” more or less the same data, I think
Balls, it wont install “couldnt find a suitable release”
I installed it by adding their repo to F-droid and it worked, try that
