Joe12387/README.md

I'm a software developer specializing in information security, reverse engineering, browser fingerprinting & bot detection.

I partially own and operate OverpoweredJS, a browser fingerprinting and web security service.

I also maintain several open source repositories here on GitHub.

You can contact me at [email protected]. My PGP key is available here if you require increased confidentiality.

That's about it.

Here are my current active projects as of November 2025:

  • OverpoweredJS - Startup founded by myself and my full time job. Focused on browser tracking, fraud detection, and punching bad guys.
  • detectIncognito - A TypeScript/JavaScript library for detecting the use of incognito mode or a similar private browsing mode when a browser visits a site. Works with all browsers with compatability for old browsers going back approximately 10 years.
  • Browser Fingerprinting Resistance Research - Documentation on the current state of browser fingerprinting, browsers' attempts at mitigating such techniques, and the current traceability of all browsers.

Also, I don't have anywhere to put my list of reported security vulnerabilities, so here they are:
