    Yeah there’s 3% reported, but what do you think that 3% unknown is? Am I supposed to believe it’s all Windows users spoofing their user agent?

      I spoof my user agent on Linux and appears as a Windows user to websites. So I’m actually contributing to the Windows stat.

          To reduce fingerprinting. Linux still has a relatively small user base.

        It’d be cool to spoof a browser to appear as OS/2 running IE6 or so.

          That would be cool but also will defeat the purpose of not standing out
