String...

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:42.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/42.0

Update the string every now and then?

Disable all plugins.

Best I got, sorry.

You can just use about:config if you're going to update it manually. But that's not nearly the worst part of fingerprinting, with plugins and fonts and apparently webgl, etc.

Is there a way to pretend plugins are disabled when they're on click to play?

I don't think so.

Also, being able to toggle the UA and setup lists to dynamically set it is helpful in my usecase.
