One thing I found that broke tracking algorithms was the ‘every tab is a new random profile’ extension. I can’t remember the name as I haven’t used it in a while and it broke a lot of logins.
They could not build a profile on you and it would break their system of tracking user login per device.
You probably mean Temporary Containers…?

I've recently switched from Containerise + Temporary Containers to Auto Containers. Brand new addon, but the dev is responsive and IMO it works much better for creating new containers on the fly as you browse.

When I added it, and went to Youtube, it instantly started generating tabs in some kind of loop ... had to shut FF down to stop it, and even then had to kill the loop manually.
That's really handy! I like that it handles domains automatically
Edit: Seems to break ad blocking and there's some issues with login. Such as adding a container for YouTube requires also doing *.google.com since that's how the login is handled. Interesting and I'll keep playing around with it
