Description

Panopticlick has now been renamed Cover Your Tracks.

Something should be added about how using a user agent that doesn't match the browser behavior can increase fingerprinting. This should also be added to https://www.stoutner.com/user-agent-problems/. This could use information from https://redmine.stoutner.com/boards/1/topics/236?r=239#message-239.

It would also be nice to include a link to https://webaim.org/blog/user-agent-string-history/ and explain how User Agents represent a brief history of the internet.
