“Meta devised an ingenious system (“localhost tracking”) that bypassed Android’s sandbox protections to identify you while browsing on your mobile phone — even if you used a VPN, the browser’s incognito mode, and refused or deleted cookies in every session.”

      You can Block WebRTC via uBlock.

      From my understanding, this, along with setting Meta on fire, may mitigate the issue.
