It’s not even “Incognito” (what a misnomer too), this is a Gecko-based browser

    There’s an extension that allows you to hide incognito mode from websites called Hide Private Mode I’m not sure why browsers don’t do this by default (maybe it’s some funny compliance thing) it would greatly improve privacy.

      Thx. It’s weird, but I guess that’s now part of Firefox now, to be hypocrites.

      Also why the heck does the browser need to ping Google every time I launch a private session? I can’t even fathom a reasonable answer.
