Comment:

 Panopticlick is not a good platform for doing this kind of tests as it is
 strongly biased both with respect to older browsers it has seen and to
 non-Tor Browser browsers. What we aim is to reduce the user difference
 *just within* the Tor Browser group, which Panopticlick can't measure.
