Anything can be used for fingerprinting. Your GPU can be used for fingerprinting. Your fonts can be used for fingerprinting. MIDI is so far down the list of fingerprinting threats.

If Mozilla are really serious about fingerprinting then they need to remove <canvas> right now and make every website render in Times New Roman.

Fingerprinting cannot be solved by disabling browser features in a standard browser. It can be mitigated by using content blockers such that the fingerprinting code never runs, or by using a specialist browser like the Tor browser.

Pretty sure canvas is blocked by setting resistFingerprinting to true.

Yes and that's a major issue

Ad absurdum is not as great an argument as you think it is

It also shouldn't be facilitated by just blindly turning them on without propert mitigation. And proper mitigation is complex

> It can be mitigated by using content blockers

So now you're shifting the responsibility onto the user. Even though it's been shown time and again that users can't really understand all the complexities of modern systems, their capabilities and the far-reaching results of what these systems can and do.
