Searching for flights with cookies turned off: truth or urban myth?

I often hear people say that you're supposed to do flight comparisons in a private browser tab since the site puts the prices up once it knows which day you prefer to travel.

That sounds like something you could get done for, legally, even though it's technically trivial - so is this just another of those myths that get propagated endlessly?

It may have been true a few years ago but I've never found that even when I was taking frequent flights about 5 years ago.
