/* 0110: start Firefox in PB (Private Browsing) mode
* [NOTE] In this mode *all* windows are "private windows" and the PB mode icon is not displayed
* [WARNING] The P in PB mode is misleading: it means no "persistent" local storage of history,
* caches, searches or cookies (which you can achieve in normal mode). In fact, it limits or
* removes the ability to control these, and you need to quit Firefox to clear them. PB is best
* used as a one off window (File>New Private Window) to provide a temporary self-contained
* new instance. Closing all Private Windows clears all traces. Repeat as required. PB also does
* not allow indexedDB which breaks many Extensions that use it including uBlock Origin and uMatrix
* [WARNING] The P in PB mode is misleading: it means no "persistent" disk storage such as history,
* caches, searches, cookies, localStorage, IndexedDB etc (which you can achieve in normal mode).
* In fact, PB mode limits or removes the ability to control some of these, and you need to quit
* Firefox to clear them. PB is best used as a one off window (File>New Private Window) to provide
* a temporary self-contained new session. Close all Private Windows to clear the PB mode session.
* [SETTING] Privacy & Security>History>Custom Settings>Always use private browsing mode
