"Multi-Account Containers"
- Vinnl 8y agoI'm not quite sure what you mean by this comment, but if you mean that their approach would be similar to MAC, in the sense that "super private browsing" would have to be enabled in about:config or through an extension: that would make sense.

- Vinnl 8y agoI know the extension, but what does that have to do with informing users about not using their account when browsing with Tor? Heck, informing users about being able to use different accounts with Multi-Account Containers was already such a hard problem that they opted into shipping it as a separate extension, so it's only used by power users.
- kodablah 8y agoHow I'd do it is have a warning when using Tor outside of the designated Tor container. That is, encourage the installation of the extension when enabling a "Tor" tab (permanently dismissable of course). Alternatively they could co-opt the private-browsing window (a.k.a. incognito) feature to have a tor-browsing window. The latter might even be preferred since the former is only at the tab level and probably quite easy to forget whether you are in Tor before entering an address. It appears to be what is suggested in the notes (now that the link is up).
