Iron in the UserAgent

[enda]

Doesn't having Iron/version_number in the UserAgent make the browser more easily able to be tracked?

As far as I know, Iron browser/the developers DO WANT to have Iron in the user-agent, to make it at least that much trackable.

They DO WANT webservers, traffic analyzers, stats gatherers to know how many people are using Iron browser, and perhaps ideally for stats and/or testing, verifying, reviewing sites and services to know that Iron browser exists.

If you remove Iron from the user-agent, all usage would look like Chrome or Chromium browsers.

If we would remove it, we would no longer be in browserchoice.eu.
If we would also remove the number, you could get problems at some website and/or extension.

But you can do this yourself with UA.ini.
