Re:Bypassing anti-incognito detection in Google Chrome on Saturday July 20, 2019 @08:55PM (#20489282)
I want #1 for all machines, almost 100% of the time. Maybe 99%.

I try to wipe my drives and repartition every 30 to 60 days, with a full OS reinstall. The Virtual Machines I run with VirtualBox are even less persistent than the bare metal, often stateful for mere hours. I do not retain browser history, and I have only about 5 bookmarks, and trash my cookies and cache at least every day, multiple times usually.

But I want #2 for like 75% of the time. The other 25% of the time, that state almost never lasts 48 hours. When I go to bed, the current browser state dies forever. I usually have a hard time staying awake for 48 hours straight.

This means #2 will become 100% every 48 hours, with 48 hours being an extreme maximum lifetime for session data, and the true norm being 8 hours (9 to 5, each work day).

Considering that #1 & #2 are sure to intersect every 48 hours, dividing attention between them seems burdensome.
