AliExpress webpage keeping multipoint Bluetooth headphones active with WebAudio fingerprinting
In Firefox, I use the official uBlock Origin extension by Raymond Hill. To block the scripts open the uBlock dashboard, select My filters, and add:
```js
! AliExpress AWSC fingerprinting scripts
||assets.aliexpress-media.com/g/AWSC/uab/*/collina.js$script,domain=aliexpress.com
||assets.aliexpress-media.com/g/AWSC/fireyejs/*/fireyejs.js$script,domain=aliexpress.com
```
Click Apply changes, close any existing AliExpress tabs, and open the site again. Existing tabs need to be closed because blocking a script does not shut down an audio context that it has already created.
