Title. How many extensions would be the average to not be profiled? Obviously not having any or having 23 will make you pretty easy to fingerprint, so how many is the average or safest?

    Not necessarily announce their existence. There’s some way for websites to communicate with extension like explained here. IMO, a sufficiently motivated actor can use this to add additional data point for fingerprinting.

    Although most of the methods are only applicable if you’re using Chrome or Chromium based browsers and Firefox has disabled the methods commonly used to extract information from the browser.
