>in a VM

Are you saying it's possible to detect VMs in the browser without using the WebGL vendor? Mind sharing some resources?



Besides the vendor, you can fingerprint the extensions list, as well as various limits https://browserleaks.com/webgl. Also webgl isn't fully deterministic across vendors (similar to audiocontext, which is affected by compiler/FPU implementations), so you'll get minor differences in output due to differences in rendering pipeline/implementation.
