[QUOTE="TairikuOkami, post: 861036, member: 61892"] I doubt it does, especially since a browser can not remove files being opened, unless it uses a separate process for cleaning afterwards. To partially exclude the browser from tracking, use a portable version. Unpack it, browse, remove it. But it will not prevent session tracking. You were looking for specific items, maybe a dozen of people searched for them in the past week. So it is very easy to connect it to you. Exactly, it is a lost battle. People keep forgetting about offline tracking, tracking users's purchases and interests, like their subscriptions, etc. Eg I ordered 2 dumbphones recently and Facebook just showed me AD for the exactly same model, not mention other stuff, like wolf t-shirts.
