1894958 - Collect test canvas renderings

Status: ASSIGNED

(Core :: Privacy: Anti-Tracking, enhancement)

Description

[Tom Ritter [:tjr]]

We would like to render certain canvas samples and use them, in conjunction with other collected data, to determine (a) how many users are unique because of canvas and (b) what settings are and are not affecting canvas, and what we can possibly hold constant to reduce canvas entropy.

Note that the metric types are text which requires highly_sensitive in the metrics file; but the actual data is technical in nature.

To my knowledge this is awaiting sensitive data collection review before the facilitators per the process so I'll untake this for now.
