Hide Incognito Mode

This extension helps you avoid some incognito mode detection methods, allowing you to view certain web pages in incognito mode.

What is Hide Incognito Mode?

"Hide Incognito Mode" is a Chrome extension designed to help users avoid detection while using incognito mode on sites that normally block such usage. This efficient tool is helpful for viewing web pages that limit free views per month. Do note, it doesn't bypass a member-only section but can reset your monthly viewing limit. Further, it requires special installation to activate its incognito-cloaking behaviour.

==================================== What This Extension Does

This tiny and efficient extension can help you use certain websites which don't allow incognito mode. These websites usually let you read a few pages per month for free, but charge for unlimited access. If you try to use incognito mode, they may tell you that they don't allow using incognito mode. This extension can help you fool them into thinking that you're NOT using incognito mode, even though you actually ARE!

This will not work on all websites, but should work on most websites IF they tell you they do not allow private or incognito mode.
This will not magically give you access to web pages that require a subscription to view a member-only section. It does however, help with many web sites that will let you view 5 or so pages per month for free, because by going incognito, you can reset your 5 per month counter.
This extension will only activate the incognito-cloaking behavior on incognito browser tabs.
You must still activate incognito tabs yourself.

Words of advice, if you're going to use it to hide incognito, go ahead, but whatever you do NEVER CLEAR INCOGNITO SESSION PRIVATE DATA the reason I'm saying this was because when I was using it for what I thought it was when I clicked that button, all my passwords, I had this google account for over 5 years and the passwords were deleted with no way to recover, at first I didn't think the extension deleted my passwords but I tested it again and it removed all my password permanently. This extension is only good if u leave it in your extension list untouched.
