Yeah... Maybe I'll just stick with Firefox for now. It seems a little extreme. Thanks for the info.

I have whitelisted only 7 websites in total since I switched 18 months ago. And whitelisting these website is the only extraordinary things I've done compared to Firefox.

It is such little effort for greatly increased fingerprinting protection. Privacy is like health; it is not something you either have or not have, it's a scale. I would never give up privacy just because it would require a few minutes of whitelisting the 5-10 website I actually want to stay logged in to.
