The issue will be solved when all tracking companies have collapsed and that industry is dead. Clearly we aren’t there yet.

Here's a quote: "There will also be new security measures to prevent digital fingerprinting, or the use of things like installed fonts and plug-ins to help track users across the internet even with privacy settings active. Websites will be given a stripped down, simplified system configuration so every user's Mac looks like every other user's Mac."

Andale Mono, Arial, Arial Black, Arial Hebrew, Arial Narrow, Arial Rounded MT Bold, Arial Unicode MS, Comic Sans MS, Courier, Courier New, Geneva, Georgia, Helvetica, Helvetica Neue, Impact, LUCIDA GRANDE, Microsoft Sans Serif, Monaco, Palatino, Tahoma, Times, Times New Roman, Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Wingdings, Wingdings 2, Wingdings 3 (via javascript)

I have hundreds more fonts installed. Panopticlick says that about 1 in 14 browsers have this value, so your browser should have it too.

So that part seems to work, I was just confused because the effect on overall uniqueness is very low. Still I applaud the efforts by the WebKit Team.
