[QUOTE="HarborFront, post: 897637, member: 55987"] I'm comparing Containers vs PB mode of FF and not FF browser against other browsers FF Site Isolation is still an ongoing-process [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ghacks.net/2019/08/11/firefox-70-site-isolation-testing-begins-officially/[/URL] In short, quote from link, Containers isolate sites from sites outside the container. You can put multiple into a container and they may share information if, e.g. the same tracking resources are loaded. First-Party Isolation does more-or-less what Containers do, but for each site individually. Means: If the feature is enabled, you don’t need to use Containers for blocking tracking. Containers may still be useful for other purposes, e.g. automatic clearing of data in a container. Fission / Site Isolation moves sites and cross-site iframes into their own process; this isolates them from one another which improves security. More detailed explanation between Containers, Cookies and First-Party Isolation can be found here [MEDIA=reddit]firefox/comments/87mdkc[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=reddit]firefox/comments/i3k13i[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
