Hello Bernard

I believe the following addon will work perfectly for you : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/private-tab/

Thanks for the quick response. Perhaps this will do the trick. The second part of the question was, if not why not? In other words why does the extra work fall on those wanting more privacy more easily? To use an old metaphor, it's as if a lock on the door would be an extra for your house or car. Answer desired from the shakers and movers at Mozilla. Why is this not a built-in option on parity with the other "privacy" options?

Hi Bernard

Please allow me to take this up with our developers to find out if this is something in the works or raise a new topic around the same.

I shall get in touch once i have more information.

Thank you for using Firefox.

Get in touch anytime you have any issues

When you are in permanent Private Browsing mode then all tabs and windows that you open should be PB mode tabs. The Private Tab extension will allow to open normal tabs or change the mode of each tab.

You can use an extension to get Private Browsing mode support per tab.

• Private Tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/private-tab/
• Private Browsing mode tabs get a dashed underline
• You can toggle Private Browsing mode on/off via the right-click context menu of a tab

Hi Bernard

One of the reason for this is people can get confused between whats private and whats not, so creating a separate window made it more clear and eliminates these scenarios.

Thank you
