A question for clarification:
Containers don't prevent the browser from leaking information such as the addons and fonts installed, right? In other words, the browser fingerprint would still be revealed?
If this is the case then containers might be an okayish first step but may convey a false sense of security to the user.
- skrowl 9y agoYou can't (at least currently) allow / block extensions by container. The security and ease-of-use is simply a separate storage for sessions / cookies / etc for each container. Nothing more, nothing less. If you're concerned about privacy and leaking information there are a TON of tweaks you can do to about:config or via a user.js file such as: https://www.ghacks.net/2015/08/18/a-comprehensive-list-of-firefox-privacy-and-security-settings/ https://www.ghacks.net/2015/08/18/a-comprehensive-list-of-fi...
