 Replying to [comment:1 gk]:
 > A preliminary test is in bug_13496 in my public test repo. Reminder:
 don't forget to test nested workers.

 I think we can close this. Override prefs are not used anymore see tom's
 comment - https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/27268#comment:18
 "Yeah all of these should be deleted from tor's js file. With RFP enabled
 they do nothing"

 PS: FYI: I know this is not what the ticket was for, but you can go to
 https://securehomes.esat.kuleuven.be/~gacar/dev/worker_test.html which
 shows web workers return RFP values (although some spoofed values are the
 real values, e.g Win32 on windows machines) - I might add this to TZP but
 it's probably a waste of time

 PPS: do you want me to test RFP UA spoofing in nested WebWorkers? Or would
 that also be a waste of time - anyway, feel free to close this
