Just today when I open a new tab while in private browsing it opens up not in private browsing. Also my purple mask has disappeared from the in private browsing screen. What gives?

Note that you won't see the purple mask when you start Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Always use Private Browsing mode; Never Remember History).

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