Its kind of like Simplex Chat claiming to be more secure and private than everything else. (Solid platform though)

I think this is a shitpost of the highest order. If this appears to everyone (?) it adds nothing, and the crappy table is just astonishingly blatant cherry-picking.
I think it's a work of love. :)
That's how all these tables are. If a vendor presents a table comparing themselves to competitors, it's going to be cherry picked.

Feel free to test your fingerprinting resistance on a stock Firefox-install. https://www.amiunique.org/
So it says that the fingerprint is unique. What information do I gain from that?
The information that Google iframe gains on almost every site is that it is you visiting that site, as verified by your unique fingerprint. Into your profile it goes.
Yeah it actually really bad that they can identify every single unique user like this.

I didn't get that but I guess because I have a plugin to give me nice backgrounds on new tabs.
But yeah, shots fired. Nice!
The only issue is that only already existing Firefox users see this, and we already know this.

They need to add a row for ~~"Owned by a foreign superpower"~~"Owned by the Chinese government" and a check for Opera.

On one hand, yeah. On the other hand, that could be a point in its favor, depending on your threat model. After all, if you're American, China can't prosecute you for secrets it learns from Opera the way the FBI could prosecute you for secrets it learns from Google.

Literally every single entry is owned by a foreign superpower.
