Google Not Contained by Container Tab

boldrobot

I am noticing what I think is a bug with Google and Firefox Container tabs.

Currently: If I have a non-google site open in a particular container tab (say, LinkedIn.com on a LinkedIn container tab that I've designated as green colored), and then I make another new tab in that same container, and I type in google.com, Firefox automatically switches the tab type from the green LinkedIn container tab type to a colorless no-container tab, and, on top of that, because I am signed in to google in my no-container tab, it signs me in to my account.

Expected: When I open a new tab in a container, and I go to google.com, that the Firefox tab remain in that green container tab type and not switch me to a different tab type where I'm signed in to Google and it's tracking me.

Note: I am not looking for workarounds -- I have already been able to work around it myself. Rather, I am trying to report this as a bug.

boldrobot, are you using the Firefox Multi-Account Containers add-on?

If so, then a site opened in one container might instead get opened outside it for a couple of reasons.

  1. The new site has been assigned to a different container than the current one.
  2. The current container has been set to only allow a specified list of sites, and the new site is not on this list.

If I have understood correctly, I would lean more towards the second option here. Your Linkedin container may have been set to only allow certain sites, and Google is not on this list. Hence it gets opened outside.

So here's something to check. If you press ctrl+. to open the Firefox Multi-Account Containers options, then select "Manage Containers", then select your Linkedin container, is "Limit to Designated Sites" checked?

If so, then that might explain what you are observing.
