Until I change just one of those identifiable metrics, that is, right? As soon as I change, for instance, my screen resolution I am another unique user and am no longer identified with the previously unique fingerprint.
Surely, if someone installed insidious software on every single page of the internet and tracked me everywhere, there could be a way to use some fuzzy logic to re-identify myself. But we're way into the deep end on hypothetical again, right?
My main point is that, practically speaking, it isn't very.
Not really. If you change those metrics and then re-login to any account that is cooperating with the person trying to track you, you've lost your anonymity again.
