  • If you use incognito, I'm sorry, it's not saving your privacy.

  • So what does it do?

  • It can hide what you did locally, hide cookies, or use YouTube, for example, without logging in.

  • But your ISP or YouTube will still know that you entered it.

  • How? Look.

  • Browsers save details like your processor type, operating system, browser version, screen resolution, and even installed fonts to identify your device when you visit a website.

  • This combination of information creates a unique profile known as a digital fingerprint that websites can use to recognize you later, even if you delete cookies.

  • This helps with things like preventing fraud, personalizing ads, and improving user experience.

  • But it also raises privacy concerns since it allows websites to track you across the internet without your explicit consent.

  • Now you could ask, "How can I save my privacy?"

  • Use a virtual machine.

  • I think VirtualBox is 10 megabytes.

  • Also use a VPN like ProtonVPN.

  • Browsers like Brave or Tor are designed to block trackers and prevent websites from collecting detailed information about your device.

  • In Firefox, you have the choice to block fingerprint by randomizing or hiding certain details about your device.

  • And you better avoid all.

  • And just be normal.

  • I mean, be free, don't be anonymous.

  • Also, you can see your history easily in Command Prompt and delete it.

  • It's explained in a lot of other videos.

  • So, yeah.

If you use incognito, I'm sorry, it's not saving your privacy.
