pixelscan.net really hates all my proxy setups.

I have been using AWS proxies I set up manually on some EC2s. Sitting here wondering why my accounts are getting shadow banned.

Read about pixelscan.net here. Decided to try it with one of my AWS proxies. Turns out I've been leaking my ip with WebRTC all along. No wonder it's so easy to detect me.

I was also using vanilla firefox. Figured it wouldn't matter since I don't use firefox for anything else.

Decided to try Incognition + Iproxy residential proxies.

Two problems
1) No matter what settings I use on incognition. It always comes back as "You are masking your fingerprint". I even tried to copy and paste my settings into the manual section where you can edit WebGL stuff. No good.
2) Every IP that I use from Iproxy is listed on the "Your IP Address is listed on anonymous network" in the IP section of pixelscan.net.

The whole idea is. If pixelscan.net can see it. Reddit can't be far behind. In fact, if anything they can likely see even more.

So help me out. Am I overthinking it?

It seems like the only way to go about this is to do VMWare with a custom VPN. Proxies seem completely useless for this because of the WebRTC crap. Yet I go into the proxies/vpn section here and everyone is selling Proxies. They can't be so useless if everyone is buying them. What am I missing?

Thank you so much for all your help.
 
Buying an antidetect and proxies that are not horseshit is also a viable solution
To be honest someone vouched for them. I haven't had a need for proxies for quite some years. Only recently getting back into the game.

How can I know which ones are horseshit?

And can you elaborate on antidetect please.
 
try mobile proxies
What antidetect browser would you recommend?

One of the problems I had is that pixelscan tells me that I am showing inconsistent fingerprints with Incognition. Is that something that doesn't matter? Or does incognition suck?

I no longer use incogniton. I use dolphin anty, give it a try on just one account, with fresh proxy and let us know what pixelscan says :)

Yes I noticed that dolphin doesn't have that problem :) Thank you for pointing that out though.

Is there a good guide somewhere out there for obfuscation? I just get this feeling it's only a matter of time before dolphin is leaking something too. Better to understand the scope of the problem.

That I wouldn't know, let us know how your tests work out
 
You're not overthinking it. It sounds like you're on the right track. If you're using it with a proxy, it's possible that the proxy is still leaking some information that Incognition can't see. Use a residential proxy that blocks WebRTC and has good fingerprinting protection.

Will blocking webrtc not set off a red flag?

The problem with incognition was not webrtc. That it handles well. The problem was pixelscan kept saying that my fingerprint was inconsistent. Something about the hardware hashes most likely.

I found that dolphin doesn't get those messages on pixels can. Using the same exact proxies from iproyal.
 
Keep us updated on how the accounts handle with Dolphin, I am having the exact same problem though I am using paid VPN.

I downloaded Dolpin and even though it doesn't say I am hiding fingerprints it still says that the info is inconsistent.

I enabled all the noise settings on WebGL, Canva etc.

Hmmm interesting. Perhaps its the proxy type or the proxy itself.

Honestly I'm just starting to figure all this stuff out myself. Would be good to get someone with experience to chime in.

Don't use VPN, they usually are datacenter ip's easily detected. Go for mobile proxy

EC2 instances are virtual machines; virtual machines have unique characteristics.

Try running your anti-detect browser on real hardware, rather than virtualised hardware.
 
Just to be sure: What OS you're using and what OS you're trying to use within your antidetect browser profiles? If you're having Windows as your OS you should only use Windows OS within your Antidtect browser as well. If you would use e.g. Mac you can be identified by Websites trying to hide your fingerprint

Ohh I was running the proxy on ec2. The anti detect was running on windows. But as the othera have said ec2 is no good cause it's too obvious.

I was running windows all along. So far Dolphin appears to work better for this application.

Inconsistency can be anything. Is there more details available such as where it is sourcing from?
 
Try Dolphin and Without any Noise in Fingerprints just use Default Settings and for Proxies first check your Residential Provide is giving you Real Residential proxies ? Sometime they give you datacenter proxies with Random Names (ISP) and most of the time there ports are open like 22 3389 etc etc
 
Are you working with new accounts or aged ones?
