CanvasBlocker vs. Canvas Defender
from privacy-settings.
This is the best alternative right now

A must read

from privacy-settings.
Experimental - it has no Privacy Policy:

I like the idea behind Canvas Defender, but when performing some code profiling, it looked like it was the cause of slowing things down a bit. Not a huge amount, mind you... but enough to be a concern.

One concern is: this addon is experimental as it doesn't reach minimum mozilla standard by not providing any privacy policy whatsoever.

@Atavic I agree, that's concerning. It's a bit odd that there is no policy, given that it's written by a company, and they have a privacy policy for their website: https://multiloginapp.com/privacy-policy/
from privacy-settings.
Haha! There has been a much longer, living add-on which does the same thing and maybe more. It's called CanvasBlocker: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/canvasblocker/. Now I'm pretty sure this one has a Privacy Policy, at least last time I checked.

@LimboSlam Very true, but read the second link in the second post in this thread for an article about downsides to using the technique employed by that extension.
from privacy-settings.
I see the 2nd link on this post a little biased IMHO. You can counter that with this text, partially taken from the Tor Project.
Just pointing at more ideas about this Randomization vs Obfuscation vs Uniformity strategies,
as I don't look at π anyone.
