+     ETAG [1] and other [2] cache tracking/fingerprinting techniques can be averted by
+     disabling *BOTH* disk (1001) and memory (1003) cache. ETAGs can also be neutralized
+     by modifying response headers [3]. Another solution is to use a hardened configuration
+     with Temporary Containers [4]. Alternatively, you can *LIMIT* exposure by clearing
+     cache on close (2803). or on a regular basis manually or with an extension.
