Does-uBO-protect-against-fingerprinting?.md

@ -1,11 +1,22 @@
uBO blocks some things related to privace/security, but it doesn't aim to be a full replacement of anti-fingerprint tools, most of related issues/discussions/feature requests to implement such functionality have been declined over years, with a headline message: "that it should be handled by separate dedicated tools":

Hence there is no point in spamming the issue tracker by creating new duplicates over and over, discussion and sharing opinions should be continued in already existing threads, new threads will be labeled as `invalid` or `duplicate` and closed.
Though, after this big pile of requests over years, as a rare exception, the following 2 scriptlets have been recently implemented:
- (05.2023) [`spoof-css`](./Resources-Library#spoof-cssjs-) (related discussion: [Scriptlet to spoof CSS property value](https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/2618) )
- (09.2023) [`prevent-canvas`](./Resources-Library#prevent-canvasjs-)
