While everything still happens within a single profile, sites in different containers get different storage (cookies, localStorage, IndexedDB, etc.) and cannot see each other.

That looks way more powerful than what Chrome is doing. I'll give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion

Cool. I've been using a combination of NoScript,Self-destruction coockies,ublock and a personal vimperator script to wipe out all that nasty stuff when I close the window. https://github.com/liloman/dotfiles/blob/master/vimperator/.vimperatorrc#L180 https://github.com/liloman/dotfiles/blob/master/vimperator/.... https://github.com/liloman/dotfiles/blob/master/Scripts/Scripts/clean_firefox.sh https://github.com/liloman/dotfiles/blob/master/Scripts/Scri... By the way firefox is pretty nasty by default and you must do a lot of hard work to evade tracking, in special by google: https://github.com/liloman/dotfiles/blob/master/vimperator/.vimperatorrc#L193 https://github.com/liloman/dotfiles/blob/master/vimperator/.... Of course you must use custom fonts if you don't want to be tracked by google for every single webpage you enter. I think I will play with containers for firefox when I try firefox 50. Something like a new container for every tab, I reckon It must be pretty easy with vimperator(or whatever plugin you like) to make . Put your vimperator/penta/vimium/X to work for you. :)

I think this is great, but is there going to be a simple "sign in" feature similar to Chrome? People just love having their bookmarks / toolbars / etc follow them wherever they go.
