I'm still unhappy with the user-agent header. I tried removing information but it breaks a number of sites. Would like to leave Linux in there (if feasible so it gets counted) but remove/spoof everything else.


Breaking websites is about the only thing you're going to accomplish by messing with the UA string. It's a small amount of entropy and anyone who really wants to track you, doesn't need it.
