So uh... By using fennec and sometimes a VPN. Am I making myself more unique and fingerprint able?

Should I be using something that sends randomised bogus data instead?

Here I thought I was private but some of these 1% figures makes it look like I'm very unique and easily tracked.

Mine is sending that my primary language is English, but that I know other languages (I don't), but it'd be nice to have a tool messes with them more.
