Individuals behave differently in the world when they are in different contexts. The way they act at work may differ from how they act with their family. Similarly, users have different contexts when they browse the web.  They may not want to leak their social network context with their work context. The goal of this project is to allow users to separate these different contexts while browsing the web on Firefox. Each context will have its own local state which is separated from the state of other contexts.
