Incognito Mode Detection script

hello Friends

i want to detect browsers incognito mode for the purpose of collecting push subs and in incognito mode its not possible to collect push notification as in incognito mode we can't access cookies so is there any script to do this task of browser mode detection actually i know this site that can do this for money but spending money for little script doesn't feel wise website URL - https://fingerprintjs.com/demo/
and is it possible to redirect users to normal mode onclick with JavaScript
thanks
please ignore my ignorance as im a script kiddie

I wouldnt worry about this too much, the % of people using incognito shouldn't be too high, unless you are working with adult traffic so people who surf porn sites where the % should be naturally higher.

I have found this stats:

7. 46% of Americans have used private browsing at least once in their life.
...at least once in their life... so not daily or all the time, the overall impact should be quite small.

Maybe it is easier to approach from the opposite direction.

Some push collection scripts have option to call a link once a subscription is accepted.

This way you can find the sources which convert. So you can exclude the non converting ones.

I would be curious how many people are surfing porn sites in incognito mode would even agree to receive push notifications. Do you have any stats on this so far? My assumption is that it would be very low, but I'm curious if it is actually higher.

Here ya go

<script> if ('storage' in navigator && 'estimate' in navigator.storage) {
navigator.storage.estimate().then(res => {
console.log(res.quota > performance.memory.jsHeapSizeLimit);
//If true, normal browser
//If false, incognito
});
} else {
console.log('Can not detect')
}

</script>

Never go by assumptions and also never underestimate the stupidity of internet users

No doubt. That is the hypothesis I'm starting with. I'd be curious to see if it stood up to testing.

I would expect the % to be quite low. When the user is clever enough to know about the incognito mode, they likely wont accept the push subscription either But I might be totally wrong

no no i just felt this one if he knows about incognito he must be aware of push too, probability is high
