contain-google

I've been using Mozilla's extension[0] that contains everything Facebook-related automatically with Firefox containers and it's been working great. This morning I looked for a similar extension for Google and I've found this fork[1] of Mozilla's extension. It's working as expected so far but I'd love for it to be officially maintained by Mozilla at some point. There is an open issue about it[2].

For those who are interested, a Google Container add-on is available for Firefox here: - Add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-contai... - Source: https://github.com/containers-everywhere/contain-google

I think you are talking about what used to be called "multi account containers"? That's obviously not viable unless you are a "power user", imagine for example a non-tech-savvy person having to enter all of the domains that Google uses, there are dozens of them as you can see here https://github.com/containers-everywhere/contain-google/blob... Or maybe Firefox containers have changed now? I haven't used FF in a couple of years, how does it work now?

They could take money from Google and be more impartial though, that would go a long way convincing people that they are independent. For example, they have a built-in, official Facebook Container, while the the Google Container[1] is a third party unofficial extension which is not even among the "Recommended" extensions (even though other similar privacy-focused extensions are in that list).

There's a ready made extension for Google. https://github.com/containers-everywhere/contain-google Installable from the Firefox extension "store".

https://github.com/containers-everywhere/contain-google https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-contai... You can use this. It's a fork of Facebook Container, but for Google. This one is a fork for Amazon https://github.com/krober/contain-amazon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/contain-amazo... Twitter: https://github.com/v1shwa/contain-twitter https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/twitter-conta... There's a few more too

I also wish that the basic container feature worked like this. In the meantime, I am very happy with the unofficial "Google Container" addon [1], which is just a copy of the Facebook container that works its magic on Google domains instead. Give it a try. It doesn't interfere with the official Facebook container addon. [1] https://github.com/containers-everywhere/contain-google

There is, in fact, a Google Container extension: https://github.com/containers-everywhere/contain-google https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/google-contai...

Bug warning: this is a neat container helper, but it will break your Back button when clicking on Google searches. Relevant addon issue: https://github.com/containers-everywhere/contain-google/issu...
