My parents having issues with Facebook has lead to me interfering in their browser setup. No more ads, containerization for Facebook etc. I hope that I will probably have less issues with purchases that didn't need to made.
containerization, you say?

Probably this one in specific https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/facebook-container/
Indeed containers. So facebook can't go snooping in on access to other websites.
I don't think facebook can snoop on firefox these days. Firefox has already isolated all third party cookie and site content by default:

- https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/firefox-rolls-out-total-cookie-protection-by-default-to-all-users-worldwide/
- https://old.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/116r2vm/question_about_using_firefox_browser_and/
So if you are using container tabs to prevent cross-site tracking, then they probably only adds fingerprinting vector (probably a rather small one though, as these extensions do not change the contents of the site).
oh wowww. i didnt know about those. i need to get that. thanks!
