Containers Come to Firefox Test Pilot

There is a feature called First Party Isolation that (I think) does what you want for normal tabs, and can already be enabled through about:config. (initially developed for the Tor Browser Bundle, their description of it is here https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser/design/#ident... )

Beware that privacy.firstparty.isolate might break some sites that depend on third-party services for login authentication or comment systems. If you find any broken sites, you can report them in Bugzilla and mention this Firefox bug:

I use noscript to by default turn off scripts from 3rd party sites (unless whitelisted). It breaks quite a few sites, but it also makes lots of sites load quicker and doesn't load a bunch of advertising/tracking stuff that I don't really want loaded anyway.
