- jeffbee 1y agoIsn't it sort of contradictory to try to use private browsing with a service that requires your identity?
- kccqzy 1y agoNot contradictory at all. These days private browsing for most people just means (1) don't save the browsing history and (2) log me out of all websites temporarily.
- jeffbee 1y agoBut as the other post notes, it goes further (than, for example, Chrome Incognito) in ways that can break sites. Incognito means exactly what you said, while Safari Private Browsing means more.
- Sohcahtoa82 1y agoNot necessarily. I might create a login for a porn site so that I can have some favorite videos bookmarked and it can figure out the type of material I like. That doesn't mean I want my history saved locally.
- davsti4 1y agoI just tried opening it in a private window and the page loaded and rendered. What part doesn't work?
- jimt1234 1y agoI can one better (worse): A state-run website that my sister frequents for her job requires Internet Explorer. Seriously. I installed a Chrome extension that modifies her user-agent header to IE, and it works fine. Easy work-around, but totally lame.
