Yeah smarty pants obviously it has to download the data, but by default it shouldnt permanently store it as a file in your download folder. Files like this should go into a tmp file or only into RAM.

I'd check if I was you. I think both Chrome and Firefox keep it in downloads folder

Yes, obviously. That's what we have a problem with.

Idk about default Firefox, but both Fennec on Android and Librewolf on Desktop do not permanently save it.
