One-click Container Firefox

One-click Container

By: zncoder
Browse webpages in either site-specific confined containers or ephemeral containers.

Features & Capabilities

I browse websites in two modes, ephemeral and persistent. For the majority of the websites, I don't want to leave any trace, so I browse them in a new container every time. For the rest of the websites, such as bank sites, I want to keep the cookies to avoid repeated logins, but I don't want to expose these cookies when I visit other websites, so I browse them in a persistent container that is tied with the specific website. I call the first kind of container ephemeral container, and the latter confined container. The ephemeral container is an one-time container. It is generated when a website is visited in a new tab and deleted when the tab is closed. The confined container is tied with a website, and is persistent.

By clicking the browser action icon, I can easily switch between the two modes. For a new website, I start in the ephemeral container, and if I decide to keep the cookies of this site, I click the browser action icon to convert to the confined container. Later on if I change my mind, I click the browser action icon to switch back to the ephemeral mode, and the cookies will be deleted after the tab is closed.

This add-on is inspired by "Firefox Multi-Account Containers", "Temporary Containers", and "Cookie AutoDelete".

Significantly easier to use than Temporary Containers, you just browse like normal and websites suddenly stop remembering you, without needing to go through a long drawn out process to handle being able to stay logged into particular sites. Only real pain point is that you can't do a few things you can do with Temporary Containers + Multi-Account Containers, like have one website have multiple persistent containers (like keeping your various Gmail accounts separate, but still being able to right click a shortcut and log into the appropriate account). Or the ability to permit certain sites to share info temporarily, such as for more complicated sign in processes like OAuth. But just being able to browse in relative privacy without needng to go through fifteen extra steps just to log into a website is just so nice that I'm kind of putting off disabling the add-on to manage all that other stuff. I'd rather just use Thunderbird than deal with Temporary Container's nonsense again, this extension is just that good.

Is One-click Container Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

One-click Container requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.
  • Critical ****** ****** ** ******* ***** ***** *** ** **** ** ***** **** ******** ****** *** ******** ********** * ******* ********
  • High ****** *** ********* ** ******* *** ******* ******* ** ****** *** *** ******** ******
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

One-click Container is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
