It's really good for present shopping if you use a shared device.

The computer has the ability to make accounts, so people have their own personal spaces.

I've never seen someone use this in the home (i.e., non-business/school) environment.

Browsers have their own user profiles now, but that's a much newer feature than Incognito mode.
