Author: intrigeri Date: To: tails-dev Subject: [Tails-dev] Setting curl's user-agent to the same as Tor Browser?
Hi,
on the one hand, for an attacker that only looks at the user-agent
header, telling curl to use the same value for it as the Tor Browser
would make it part of a larger anonymity set.
On the other hand, the fingerprint of curl probably differs in many
other ways. So, for an attacker that looks at it more closely, a curl
HTTP client pretending to be Firefox is part of a very small
anonymity set.
Against which one of these attackers do we want to optimize Tails for?
