- CDN extensions don't really improve privacy as far as sharing your IP address is concerned and their usage is fingerprintable as this Tor Project developer [points out](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/22089#note_2639603). They are the [wrong tool](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_problem) for the job and are not a substitute for a good VPN or Tor Browser. Its worth noting the [resources](https://git.synz.io/Synzvato/decentraleyes/-/tree/master/resources) for Decentraleyes are hugely out of date and would not likely be used anyway
* Temporary Containers, Cookie extensions
- Redundant with [Total Cookie Protection](https://blog.mozilla.org/security/2021/02/23/total-cookie-protection/) (dFPI) or FPI
- ❗️ Sanitizing in-session is a false sense of privacy. Extensions may lack APIs or application of them, and it does nothing for IP tracking. Even Tor Browser does not sanitize in-session e.g. when you request a new circuit. A new ID requires _both_ a new sanitized session _and_ a new IP. The same applies to Firefox.

Even Tor Browser does not sanitize in-session e.g. when you request a new circuit. A new ID requires _both_ full sanitizing _and_ a new IP. The same applies to Firefox
- Note: If you want multiple and/or concurrent logins to the same site, use Multi-Account Containers
