Your buddy’s closer to being right here. Incognito mode just stops your browser from saving history, cookies, and login info on your device. Your internet provider, employer, websites you visit, they all still see your activity. Your IP address is visible, so your location and identity can be tracked. Schools and companies monitoring their networks can see exactly what sites you’re hitting even in incognito. It basically just keeps your roommate from seeing your search history, nothing more.
