I’ve enabled “Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed” but while all cookies gets deleted, some random site data does not. Are my settings wrong, is this a bug, and what even is that data?
Additional Info: I use RFP, want to keep browsing history and site settings. Thank you very much.

What is the data it’s keeping? 25-100 bytes doesn’t seem like there’s anything actually there.
8 bytes is enough to store 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 (18 quintillion) different values, more than enough space for a fingerprint ID. The size of the data shouldn’t factor into the potential threat.
