[QUOTE="SpiderWeb, post: 1088354, member: 88686"] HAAAAAAAAHahahahahahaha. Dude. But, on a serious note. From my experience, if you use the same website, even if you are logged out, the website algorithm and cross-device tracking will eventually triangulate that you are the same user based on your secondary patterns like cursor movement/habits, device identifier, time zone, window resolution, DRM/WebRTC, what you type into text fields/search boxes etc. You can compartmentalize, but your personality will always leak through and it is enough data points to make you unique. Real life example: I can use YouTube in Tor, Firefox or Safari. In the beginning the suggestions are random but once I fall into my normal pattern of what I like to watch, Google's algorithm recognizes who I am even if I'm not logged in and it starts to recommend the same things across all browsers. Cross-device tracking has become extremely powerful. [/QUOTE]
