This is great for when you have a corporate laptop and you want to separate your personal browsing session from your work browsing session easily. I also like it because I setup a VPN for the browser and have access to some self-hosted stuff.

It also raises the bar for MiTMs to intercept your session cookies significantly.

you should never have a personal browsing session on a work laptop. DISCOVERY. not even once!

That's exactly what this would solve.

Keyloggers?

And screen loggers.

And MitM network traffic loggers.

That said, I guess everyone's threat model is different and maybe a remote browser like this solves some problem for them despite those constraints.

Can you elaborate? Are You saying the session details might be revealed by a law suit? Wouldn’t that be limited to Urls? So not great if those reveal anything but checking your hotmail is not ok?

Or is it about corporate laptops possibly spying by taking screenshots and key logging?
