YouTube is a Google property and thus this should be no surprise from a company that makes it’s money from tracking. It’s similar to the funding of the ‘anonymous’ network Tor by the US government: https://www.businessinsider.com.au/claims-tor-funded-by-us-government-agencies-2018-3 https://www.businessinsider.com.au/claims-tor-funded-by-us-g...

It wasn't a surprise for me in the sense that I was already suspicious of this behaviour. I made this video as a proof. The problem is that if a product feature is being marketed as "incognito", it is inherently meant to wipe off all the session information for the duration of use. Youtube not respecting the choice of a user to go private as part of it's own provided feature is extremely misleading. Not sure if this is violating their own privacy terms or not.
