  • A few things can cause that:

    • Browsers that now block operating system fingerprinting by default, a privacy feature several major browsers have quietly shipped in the last couple of years (Librewolf and Helium browser do that)

    • Locked down corporate or government machines with identifying headers stripped out
    • Modified or anonymized versions of Windows that don’t report themselves correctly
