I agree, your description is more why I like it -- the only websites that get to save any state are the ones I pick to open in specific named containers and which I also specifically granted permissions to with uMatrix (RIP).
Everything else opens links in a new container with the hope to make it as close as possible to looking like a different person clicked that link. I know it won't work that well since the IP doesn't change nor the user-agent, but at least it helps with the most lazy tracking.
- smichel17 6y agoI share the same goals; thanks for the succinct description. Discussion upthread made me interested to see whether I can route temporary containers through tor, to make this protection stronger — see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24853320 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24853320 It's not super high on my list of priorities though, probably won't get to it for a month or two.
- neltnerb 6y agoOh, that'd be very neat if it made separate container tabs look like different tor sessions. Very clever! I suppose there's little short of that which would stand a real chance of working...
