    this is why I love Firefox. I can create a throw away profile, file my taxes, then delete that profile. I do this for a lot of sites. Social media has a separate profile from shopping, ect…

      Many many moons ago, I was traveling for business and I met a guy who worked for Meta. He worked in their online sales department for users. I thought to myself, “Why do you need that?” Who would buy anything through Facebook?

      A lot of people, apparently.
