Incognito/Private Browsing came about when people were sharing computers more often. It doesn’t save history and cookies and whatnot on your device. It’s to prevent the next user from getting in to your bank account.
Google and whoever else will still know your IP and can use that to cross-reference whatever other data they have on you.
I use private, because I am a tab hoarder

Which is why i don't use safebrowsing but rather a separate profile located (
--profileswitch) in XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. -
Ah, good find. I just assumed it would have been explicit about it from the start

Yeah, one would have hoped that’d be the case - but apparently not.
I just remembered reading this a while back (start of last year, it seems?), and it honestly felt like a tacit admission of wrong-doing - so they’re likely going to be facing an uphill battle, or at least are expecting one.

Firefox's main funding was from Google being their default search engine. Which of course means anything searched in Google (via the URL field) is recorded to the external IP address logs. So unless you are going directly to the website or changed the search engine in Firefox, yes Google was recording said information (or at least compiling the numbers for data analytics) to use for advertising purposes.
changed the search engine in Firefox
Which... takes maximum 1min to do.

Or buying pornography.
Or pornographic gifts.

Brave is also Chromium.

That was actually their lawyer's argument, that "incognito mode" being private was just something people assumed and ran with, not their fault.

Incognito: having one's true identity concealed
If it doesn't conceal your identity, then that's pretty clearly misleading. They're not selling to experts, the users of this are laypeople. It's like if you sold a "waterproof phone" and the packaging all made it look like it could withstand water, but then when it got wet it broke and you were like "people just assumed it was waterproof, it's not our fault".
Sure experts could tell, and enthusiasts would read the expert opinions on it, but that's not something you should expect of laypeople considering how it is presented. -

It’s Google. If you are shocked by this, you deserve to be tracked.

Brave is also Chromium.
Firefox is also a web browser.
Oh sorry, I thought we were making meaningless comparisons.

Things do the opposite of what their name says they do. We've been in 1984/F451 bizarro world for a while, now.
