mine is ~17. language, platform, screen size, time zone, user agent, and plugin info are the most identifying.

anyone know of a list of the most used values for these so we could lower our uniqueness by setting our browser values to them?

Likewise. It makes no difference whether I enable or disable the Fingerprinters checkbox.

Maybe due to the "uBlock Origin stops it from working" mentioned elsewhere, or some other glitch. Disabling uBlock Origin on panopticlick.eff.org didn't make a difference.
