Should we ignore private mode on Firefox is the same thing and not really private. I think incognito in this context is actually more accurate.

- twobitshifter 4y agoActually it’s not the same because firefox comes with enhanced tracking protection.
- npteljes 4y agoWe should. Private mode fits the usage, and also if you open one such windows, it'll clearly tell you that: "Firefox clears your search and browsing history when you close all private windows. This doesn’t make you anonymous."
- encryptluks2 4y agoThat doesn't make you private either. Google getting based while Firefox getting a free pass when doing the same thing doesn't make sense unless people are letting bias impact their logic.
- npteljes 4y agoAfter some thought, I agree. It's private only in a way that it's off the local records, but the ISP, government, can track the same info they would in the normal browsing mode.
