@geeknik : that's not true.
- HTTP headers only reveal two OSes, and doesn't seem to break anything. Headers are always sent - passive FPing. This is good.
- The reason JS reveals four OSes is to lessen breakage: less breakage = more uptake = a bigger pool to hide in. RFP on FF is not front facing yet
- All Linux RFP users still look the same - (navigator: linux / header: windows)
- You can't hide your OS. That said, anything that makes it harder is good, but since all Linux users look the same, it's not a priority
- There is a ticket in to hopefully fix the bulk of the breakage and then the JS can hopefully fall back to two OSes - see this
As for bugzilla 1557620 that you linked to, comment 2 actually says its intended behavior and links to the bug that explains why. Comment 3 is so far off the beaten track, it's not funny. It doesn't increase FPing at all (see bullet point 3 above). And as for breaking standards (header doesn't match navigator) .. got some news .. RFP is all about breaking standards: it constantly lies

Even tor leaks your OS on https site in safer mode.
Re: 1404608, is there a note somewhere about how if you enable RFP on a Linux version of Firefox, it will send Windows via the User Agent, but leak your real OS via JavaScript? Mozilla doesn't care.
