Mozilla's Firefox browser will get a new feature that makes it possible to open separate tabs for work, personal, internet banking and online shopping. The feature is called 'Containers' and makes it possible to open tabs in different contexts.
Each Container has its own cookies, cache and local storage. This makes it possible to open a business social account on one tab in the work Container, while also using a personal social media account in the personal Container. Besides the personal and work container users can also use one for internet banking and online shopping.
Mozilla hopes that this way users don't use different browsers or have to switch between accounts on the same domain.
Users can test the feature in the nightly Firefox 50 but it's unknown when or if the feature will ever make it to a final version of Firefox. Mozilla mentions it a experimental feature and is mainly interested in feedback of testers.
