 I am sure I saw it but did not realize there were implications for
 isolation.

 > You'll be more surprised to know that webpages continue to stay in a
 cache, so that it's possible to reopen them in a old state.

 I am not sure if that is a problem or not. Network traffic may be more of
 a concern, especially if isolation does not occur.

 > (also you've just disclosed your timezone ;)

 Thanks. That is not a big concern to me, but it might be for some people.
