Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-11-03 08:22:27 UTC
Epiphany's incognito mode uses the global dconf setting for auto-open-schemes, which stores the domain of a visited site when the user clicks the "Always Allow" option. This undermines one of the purposes of incognito mode by persisting the visited domain in Epiphany's configuration.
