There's a flipside question as well, how many users have the same fingerprint as you?


It depends on your browser. You have a common iPhone with Safari in your local language, many people have the same fingerprint. You configure your iPhone with Chrome (that is a webkit view on iOs) and another language, you are suddenly much more rare. You compile Firefox on your ArchLinux with Nouveau drivers and a 16/10 screen, you are unique in your area.
