Sure, but I think some of the stuff it sends isn't necessary. A website doesn't need to know the list of fonts on my machine, for example. Some of them are questionable: most websites do not need to know my time zone, but when a website can use that in a useful way related to its functionality, it would be annoying if the browser were to popup an allow/deny dialog, and even more annoying if I had to manually set it in the website's bespoke settings panel. I'm not sure what the solution is here. |

Unless you disallow websites from choosing their fonts, that information is really hard to hide. Most likely impossible.
What you can do is standardize the list.

Almost anything with a form needs this.
Every information on that page is necessary for something common and desirable. It's not using any advanced fingerprinting that can be blocked.
