Re: “FPDetective: Dusting the web for fingerprinters”

Thanks Dom, for bringing our paper in.

Checking the fingerprinting guidance on GitHub, another relevant study 
might be "Cookieless Monster" by Nick Nikiforakis et al.:

    N. Nikiforakis, et al. Cookieless monster: Exploring the ecosystem
    of web-based device fingerprinting. In/Proceedings of the IEEE
    Symposium //on Security and Privacy/, 2013


Best regards,

N.B.: We've just published the final version of ourpaper today. Anyone 
interested can find the updated one at the same
