      I mean it’s somewhere between what both of you are saying. I imagine “randomized” means a random common “fingerprint” (with parameters like user agent, language, etc) rather than just a unique set of randomized parameters (say, time zone in US but language set to Farsi which would be unique to an extent).

        I mean “unique” can be static. “Randomized” means it’s constantly changing.
