 Almost all visited URLs are saved in
 `/data/data/org.torproject.torbrowser_alpha/files/mozilla/profile.default/browser
 .db-wal`. Clearing private data from the settings or pressing the 'Quit'
 button does not delete that file. So basically all browsing history is
 still stored after clearing private data. After clearing private data in
 the settings, it does say that some private data could not be deleted but
 if 'Site settings' is unchecked, it doesn't say that anymore. So normally
 we'd think that only site settings are not cleared.
