does it mean if there is a browser just for browsing non-login sites and doing nothing else (do all browsing that requires a login or identification of any kind from a different browser), this problem can be prevented ?


I would love something in a browser that makes it easier to seperate the login sites I use, like webmail and facebook (occationally).

I use all the usual plugins, like Disconnect, uBlock, https everywhere, but recently I have been using a Firefox plugin called 'priv8' to sandbox the login sites I use the most (means I am not signed into google or facebook for my regular browsing). I honestly do not have that much of a in depth knowledge of browser tracking, so I am not exactly sure if this makes much of a difference.
