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

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

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