container and waterfox clears its site data when you close your last private tab where your regular session continues standard tab history private tab history nothing to show dns over oblivious http private dns without your identity attached waterfox encrypts dns lookups and sends them via an oblivious http relay the relay knows who connected but not what the query was similarly the resolver knows the query but not who sent it this keeps your identity and your dns queries separate you blind relay resolver relay sees who asked never what resolver sees what was asked never who tree tabs

updates yes waterfox incorporates mozilla security fixes into its regular updates following the firefox esr model will my extensions and bookmarks come with me waterfox can import common browser data
