It still gives metrics. And yes, Creepjs is not very useful against randomized values, though I noted it still because Brave fails (resulting in a persistent fingerprint) whereas Cromite succeeded to fool Creepjs. Both have many methods of fingerprinting protection.

The Brave browser has much better blocking capabilities with the goal of offering all of the uBlock Origins features, while Cromite has an ABP integration which has weaker and less support for advanced filterlists. The default filterlists selection is also quite questionable. A blocked script can no longer track you. Brave’s fingerprinting protection measures are technically speaking superior than Cromite, the only reason that CreepJS can’t be fooled by it all the time (I’ve done my own tests and it fails sometimes) is that it has specifically been designed to adapt to its protection mechanisms, which hasn’t been done for Cromite.
