One of the recent updates changed Firefox's behaviour. It now remembers my login status to various sites when I close the browser. For example, if I was logged in to facebook when I closed the browser, I will be logged in when I open the browser and navigate to facebook.com. This was not the case until very recently (a few weeks at most). Is there a way to change this?

I have strict privacy settings, and Firefox should delete all cookies when it is closed. There are no 'exceptions'. I have 'always use private mode' checked for history. Also: I haven't changed any settings recently - something changed in Firefox.

Any advice? Thank you.

Thanks for sharing this good to see the details. One suggestion: when troubleshooting browser issues, it often helps to check your extensions/add-ons (sometimes one of them causes the problem) and also try in a “clean” profile or safe mode to eliminate other variables.
