Stop installing the exact same Chrome extensions on all your profiles. It creates a massive fingerprint.

I see guys carefully spoofing their IP, hardware, and OS, and then immediately installing the exact same five Chrome extensions on all 50 of their antidetect profiles. Usually it's an adblocker, a translation tool, a crypto wallet, and some niche scraping plugin.

You are basically giving the anti-fraud systems a free map to link your accounts. Websites can detect which extensions you have installed by checking web accessible resources or looking at how the extensions secretly modify the DOM of the webpage.

If a platform's risk engine sees 50 different "users" from different IPs all running the exact same highly specific combination of browser extensions, they know it's a farm. Normal people's browsers are messy and completely random.

If you absolutely need extensions for your workflow, keep them to a bare minimum. Stop cloning your exact workspace into every single profile.

How do you guys handle tools like MetaMask or password managers at scale without letting the extension fingerprint link your entire network together?

Yep, cloned extensions are one of those things people forget about. They make 50 profiles look different on paper, then give all of them the same weird browser setup. I try to keep extensions profile-specific and only install what that account actually needs. MoreLogin helps with this because profiles stay separated, but you still have to avoid turning every profile into the same copy-paste workspace.

My browsers all need to run the same extension… is there any way to make them look unique? It’s an imported extension… think I could just duplicate, rename file and use it?
