Maybe a silly question - but is it unwise to use Firefox for getting torrents, or saving any bookmarks in firefox? Is there benefit to using a private window (doubtful as I believe this only affects your device).
I know we generally can trust Firefox but they could turn quickly.
I use the private tab in Firefox and Mullvad Browser sometimes to look for torrents or games.
The private tab has the main purpose of not adding the browsed sites to your browser history. It will not improve safety from the outside in any meaningful way.
why? do your parents check your browser history to see if you’re pirating stuff? because that’s all private browsing does.
