When you just posted that MR can see what OS you are using and what browser.

its like driving your new red car down a public street and then complaining when people see it.
IMO it's more like caller ID when you call an 800 number. You can't block it, but you can spoof it-and the spoofing can lead to 'unusual' results so, unless you're *really* bothered by it, it's best not to do so.
