If it points to your IP but not your PC - probably won't hold. Same if IP is wrong but fingerprint is fine. But if both are matching, there is no doubt. You know, not many Windows 11 Pro Laptops with intel 125H, 4060m, 1440p 144hz screen, Firefox version, exact same font list, system language, setting preferences exist on the planet. It is a fingerprint in the similar way an actual fingerprint works.

Oh right I hadn't thought of combining it with the IP itself.
