Non-technical Chrome users who cannot "un-Google" can at least set shortcuts to clear cookies, history, etc.<p>Go to chrome://settings/searchEngines<p>Click "Add" and instead of typing a search engine URL, enter<p><pre><code> chrome://settings/clearBrowserData#c
</code></pre>
For "Keyword" one can enter a single character, e.g., "c".<p>Select options, e.g., Advanced tab, Time range: All time, check all boxes. (The boxes will remain checked on the next invocation.)<p>Now, whenever the user wants to clear the browser data, she can just type "c" in the Address Bar.<p>No need to keep typing "chrome://settings" or keeping a tab open for settings.<p>User-agent can be changed through Developer Tools, without the need for extensions, however other headers are not accessible. Technical users who avoid using extensions can use a localhost proxy to delete headers, including Cookie where it is unnecessary.<p>Despite all the user fingerprinting that is done using HTTP headers such as User-Agent, relatively few sites actually require User-Agent and other headers. For almost all sites, the only requirement to successfully retrieve the page is the Host and, often enough, Connection headers.<p>Specific resource requests can also be blocked in Developer Tools without installing extensions as a "poor man's ad blocker". Using Developer Tools, dummy Javascript resources can be loaded from local sources to remove undesirable page characteristics.<p>However neither ad-blockers nor stripping headers prevents all the fingerprinting. If one is not happy with browser-based tracking, then using a "modern browser" with so many advanced features to retrieve a page of text is a trade-off, and, arguably, overkill.
