It's not even "Incognito" (what a misnomer too), this is a Gecko-based browser
I feel like for straw poll it's more valid, they probably do it to try and avoid people voting more than once.
I mean, of all sites, polls make the most sense to require cookies to avoid duplicate votes.
Wouldn't the better solution be to keep a log of previous client IPs, on the server side? Sure, VPN will circumvent it, but it's much easier for me to clear a cookie 100 times then to connect to 100 different VPNs.
The EU has made logging IP addresses generally illegal.
"One vote per IP-address" - So they already tackled the problem that people can vote more then once.
Straight-up asshole design.
Exactly what I think. They also block VPNs and such.
That's also asshole design. Most people are behind some form of nat. It's especially egregious for customers of ISPs who use CGNAT.
That's when I stop giving them traffic. There's far too many alternatives to do otherwise.
Enter.
"NOPE"
clicks back
And proceed to chose next search result.
It's not pointless, it's so they can track you.
what a misnomer too
It's crazy how many people think "incognito mode" prevents people from seeing what websites they are visiting.
Cookies are not evil per se... but data mining companies made them like that.
I'm administrating an online store and cookies are responsible for the customer's cart, plus their user session / logged in state.
As an admin I adhere to the "golden rule", thus there are no creepy trackers on store. I don't like them and I don't want customers to face the same thing on websites that I manage.
That said, cookies are needed for user session & fraud protection. Instead of nuking cookies we shall kick the trackers out.
Yea but all that kind of functionality can work with (permanent) private mode as well. I don't use a lot of web services so I can log in when I need or make a pwa like with Lemmy here.
Let Mozilla know by filing a report on Webcompat.
I'll look into that. I believe web sites shouldn't have any way to detect private mode, right?
Is that Firefox Focus? Because if yes, them that counts as "incognito mode" too.
Honestly people should just set there browser to clear cookies on close
Can't say I like logging into all of my accounts (most of which gave 2FA as well) 3 times a day
It kind of makes sense for strawpoll, because without some sort of cookies, they wouldn't know if the same person is voting multiple times. But they should say something like 'incognito mode makes the votes inaccurate, please visit on normal mode'
One vote per IP-Address allowed.
They already have your IP. "Incognito" mode doesn't change that.
That does have the consequence of allowing only one person to vote per public IP, which on large networks may correspond to quite a lot of users.
That probably doesn't matter much for a simple internet straw poll, but I can imagine situations where IP-based uniqueness isn't reliable enough.
Sites like this I just close the tab and use uBlacklist to hide them from any search results.
When I go to a site, and they do it, I avoid it at all the costs or never come back!
Any websites that doesn't just work with a simple ad blocker or still has ads I just close and never return.
"Oops! Looks like you're using an adblocker! Please pay a subscription!"
Oops looks like I'm gonna check the comments for someone who pasted your article for free!
There's an extension that allows you to hide incognito mode from websites called Hide Private Mode I'm not sure why browsers don't do this by default (maybe it's some funny compliance thing) it would greatly improve privacy.
Thx. It's weird, but I guess that's now part of Firefox now, to be hypocrites.
Also why the heck does the browser need to ping Google every time I launch a private session? I can't even fathom a reasonable answer.
I see that i directly close the thing
You can install the Ghostery add-on on Firefox mobile to prevent cookies and trackers.
