User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:107.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/107.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to google.com
  2. Type instagram
  3. Enter instagram link
  4. Whole history is cleared, there is no record from google.com

Actual results:

Some pages like Instagram clear all the history stack even when it comes from another domain.

Expected results:

Should be impossible to clear all history stack, but only coming from the same domain.

Hello,
you are totally right. The extension Facebook Container causes this issue. I'm terribly sorry for this mistake.
