A 30 year old friend of mine didn't know about incognito mode. A certain subreddit popped up, on his projector screen, as a recommendation when we were searching for a sports stream to watch. I don't think anyone else noticed or would really know what the sub was, but I later casually mentioned this really cool browser feature to use in case you need to search something weird.

I learned one shouldn't assume that everyone is familiar with all the digital tricks to hide what they'd prefer others not see.
