Why didn't you include these important privacy features in FF quantum ?
Firefox Prizes itself in Healthy Network and Internet Privacy, however they did not include these 2 features which made me turn down the browser :
1 - Where's the option to delete EVERYTHING in your browser after you close the window ? (history, session, Download history, cookies, passwords, auto-fill and etc)---(Shouldn't a browser that boasts about privacy include this feature) 2 - I do not like using cookies so I have disabled them altogether, whenever I use a site that requires cookies I allow access only for that site, which is easily accessed from the address bar on chrome but not on Firefox, I don't want to open up a whole page and change the settings every time just to use a website. (The cookie feature should be accessible from the address bar when relative)
3 - I'm not sure if this is true, but I heard some rumors that FF will introduce a new way to show ads that take information from the user randomly. I understand that ads are the glue that hold the internet and economy together, without ads people can't make money. However I don't like that a "privacy browser" is using these kinds methods. Also, I've heard some rumors around FF quantum that it was made by google or is related to google in some way. Is this also true? why is Mozilla relating with google ?
I was personally very excited to see FF release a new browser that is so perfect, right way I started to use it until I came across these problems which made me quit the browser and go back to my previous one. You added all these features but forgot some basic ones which are important. This browser has the potential to rival even chrome, that's how amazing it is with all it's features but you are missing a solid few features.
Please add a delete everything option, and Cookie settings that are more accessible from the address bar. Otherwise I'm going back to my previous browser.
Thank you

"never remember history" in firefox means you're in permanent private browsing mode - in there no data, from cookies to localstorage, sessiondata, formfill..., will be written onto the disk and everything is gone once the session is closed. the only thing that's kept are bookmarks you've set and files you have downloaded.

hi, ad 1) you'll get that when go to the firefox menu ≡ > options > privacy & security panel and select Firefox will: Never remember history 2) i think that permission setting from the address bar is a good idea. some addons like https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/self-destructing-cookies-1/ or https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/cookie-autodelete/ get close to that at least 3) not true on either count
Hi, Philip
1) I don't just want my history deleted I want everything deleted, Will Never remember history really delete EVERYTHING ? And, why can't i use Never remember history and Always use private browsing mode mode at the same time ?
2) yes, it is a very good idea. I guess i will rely on an add-on until it gets implemented.
3) yes, I thought so. I heard they were thinking of implement it, but don't think it came to fruition.
Thank You for the reply philip. Much appreciated.
