legitimate question. What exactly is the purpose of this in a web browser these days? It isn't like people are sharing computers or tablets. Even poor people on welfare have their very own smartphone or computer that's subsidized entirely by the government, one for each member of the family. Nobody is sharing tech these days, especially something as personal as a phone, tablet, or computer. Why would you need an incognito function on a computer that you own and use exclusively yourself? Did we really need to implement this entirely new function in a web browser when you could just click history and then delete the website from there?

>>107538125I exclusively use it because I'm too lazy to configure the browser to wipe cookies and browsing data, and some stuff I want to stay logged into on the normal browser. When I want to watch something on Rumble, Youtube or post here, it's ingrained in me to Ctrl + Shift + P.

>>107538230Imagine not sharing your hentai with the wife. Or her not sharing back.
so I can log on my account in a public pc in some school or work without it remembering my password.

>>107538125>What exactly is the purpose of this in a web browser these days?It provides a browsing session where cookies and site data aren't retained after the session ends. It also isolates this session, for the most part.>It isn't like people are sharing computers or tabletsHave you ever worked in the IT department at a corporate office, nonprofit, school, or university?>Nobody is sharing tech these daysThey are though.>Why would you need an incognito function on a computer that you own and use exclusively yourself?Because sometimes you don't want the data from a browsing session to be retained, or you need a session that is separate from the standard one (e.g. You want to use two different accounts on a domain simultaneously). It's why almost every browser has this feature or an equivalent one.>entirely new function>the websitelmao
