I wonder how many bits of entropy that fingerprint has, though. 8 bits would make for an impressive and scary looking demo, for example, but for ad tracking it would be useless.

I don't think ad tracking is the scary application...

That's a good point, and p = 1/256 is definitely good enough to convince a judge or jury.
