Tor's great if you're okay with browsing the web at "stealth mode" speed! Have you found it practical for everyday use?

TOR hides your IP address. It doesn't protect you from fingerprinting.

That is a modified browser. TOR network itself doesn't protect people from fingerprinting.

how would a traffic protocol prevent browser fingerprinting? the closest would be traffic padding which tor does.
