I'm off to read the article because my understanding was that the various
"private browsing" modes turned off caching.¹ Hence it's not clear to me how
the KISSmetrics method works in that scenario unless the period tracked is
during the same "private browsing" session.

I think that they are supposed to be both t.js as the bit in brackets is
just clarifying that KISSmetrics uses one per customer but all visitors to
that customer's site receive the same t.js
