 Tor browser is right about possible identity leak via resolution (plugins
 and such)

 but...

 Setting browser to custom resolution will give even MORE INFO!


 Use most popular resolution (less indentifying information), not most
 custom one (most precise identification)...

 Tor browser should send fake resolution every time...



 You don't walk with custom costume when you want to hide yourself...
