New Delhi: If you are under the impression that browsing porn in browsers incognito mode is safe, then correct yourself.


An ongoing research has presented a fact that browsing for porn websites in browser's incognito mode is not at all private.


The only protection that the incognito mode gives you is that it does not save history. 


As per a report published in techworm.net, your incognito browsing is stored by your internet service provider (ISP) and the browser company. Your ISP is able to monitor each and every webpage you have made.


The report further mentions that whenever you open your bank account webpage in incognito mode, your personal data like username and password are filled up despite the incognito mode not saving it.


As per Google, “Going incognito doesn’t hide your browsing from your employer, your internet service provider or the websites that you visit.” the search engine giant has warned.


In addition, many porn websites use something called Super Cookies which are able to track your movements across the web even when you are browsing in private mode.
