Hello,

voting for Naturhistorischesmuseumbasel.ch/onlinevoting-snapshot.

The public is in the middle of voting. Please do not make any direct changes!!!

I have the evaluation of Foto. There are 434 votes.

How is the fingerprint composed? 

It strikes me that you create a new fingerprint for each mobile, even though it is the same mobile. I'll send you the list. Can you help me with the analysis? I don't want a photo to win that has been faked.

Thanks a lot.

Sonja Borer

Hi Sonja,

We are using 3rd party library Fingerprint . When using this library for votes we do not include device's screen resolution, because it can lead to an incorrect fingerprint hash calculation.

On your screenshot I would say that it is the same device, though IP is not the same.

Kind regards,

Dmitrijs

Hi Sonja!

We have released a new 2.0.8 version with improved protection. It should (we hope) help with issues you have.

IMPORTANT

If you are running active contests, please do not update, because 2.0.8 version will change fingerprint of all devices! Complete your competitions first and then update!

Please let us know is a new version helped or not.

Kind regards,

Dmitrijs
