lets say you are banned from 4chan? put in another tab into browser which gives different IP: ban no longer concerns you
Elon Mysk (not Elon Musk!!) created a browser named Psylocube. Every tab on browser will have different IP

"Psylo stands out as it is the only WebKit-based iOS browser that truly isolates tabs," Mysk told The Register. "It's not only about separate storage and cookies. Psylo goes beyond that."
"This is why we call tabs 'silos.' It applies unique anti-fingerprinting measures per silo, such as canvas randomization. This way two Psylo tabs opening the same website would appear as though they originated on two different devices to the opened website."
The company claims Psylo therefore offers better privacy than a VPN because the virtual networks mask the user's IP address but generally don't alter the data used for fingerprinting. Psylo, for example, will adjust the browser's time zone and browser language to match the geolocation of each proxy, resulting in more entropy that means fingerprints created by gathering data from silos will appear to be different.
The Mysk devs' post states that some privacy-focused browsers like Brave also implement anti-fingerprinting measures like canvas randomization, but those are more effective on the desktop computer. They claim that they were able to achieve better results on iOS by using a client-side JavaScript solution. Mysk designed Psylo to minimize the information available to its maker.
"We don't associate any identifiable information with the randomly generated ID. We don't store IP addresses at all in every component of our system. We don't store websites visited by our users at all."
