Serious kudos to the author for posting this even though he mentions viewing pornography.
I had a similar problem on iOS. When I load Safari, there's usually a flash of the previous screen (probably cached as a PNG), then the page loads. I think it looks junky; I'd prefer a "loading" screen. It would flash the previous screen whether I was in private mode or not. So porn would flash on my screen. I didn't file a bug report or mention it on my twitter because I'm a little afraid of the reception. So, again, thank you charliehorse55.
edit: i said "cached as a PNG" but that's just what I thought prior to reading this article. it could be many things, including this bug.
- 0x0 11y agoI've seen that too, sometimes the tab previews in the tab overview often show outdated thumbnails even if you wait a while - it never settles to the correct thumbnail.
- mahouse 11y agoBelieve it or not everybody watches porn.
- VeilEm 11y agoThis is totally not true. :/

- cbd1984 11y agoIt isn't that everyone watches porn, it's that watching porn is just as moral as watching any other form of entertainment. Anti-porn crusaders aren't necessarily hypocrites. They also don't need to be hypocrites to be wrong.
- mahouse 11y agoMorals of watching pornography? I thought we were past their point already.

- chris_wot 11y agoSo are you.
- cbd1984 11y agoI also wear gray shirts and occasionally listen to ska. Nothing makes people quite so alien as differing moral codes. I'm "showing my hand" as regards something that simply does not matter to the majority of people on this website. Trying to make a big deal out of it simply makes you look strange.
- bobthechef 11y agoDoes believing that unsubstantiated (and irrelevant) claim make you feel less of a failure?
- floatboth 11y agoThat is indeed "cached as a PNG." iOS caches previews for the multitasking switcher. Sometimes I could see screenshots of pages that were opened a month ago. Apps like 1Password make their screen blank when they go into background to prevent this… Firefox for iOS does this too!

- tomaskafka 11y agoThis seems fixed in iOS 9 - if Safari is in private mode, the 'screenshot' for multitasking/restore is of empty page. My e-banking does the same thing - as it requires password when switching back into tab, they show just a big bank logo to hide your account history from multitasker.
