It doesn't seem to me that browsers are trying to win at all. For example, one of the greatest discriminators - font list - has been known about since people were talking about browser fingerprinting.

The fix would be pretty easy too: in incognito mode (or when toggled by the user), only support 2 fonts: 1 serif and 1 san-serif that ship with the browser on all platforms.

I don't think any of the browsers want to do that.

There are a number of other longstanding fingerprinting issues that are similarly easy to fix.
