I don't have reason to think any of the websites I visit are deliberately hiding illegal content in their metadata, and if any of them are, I'm not deliberately passing it on to anyone and I'm also able to clear my browser history.

Websites themselves don't have to deliberately include malicious or illicit content so that's hardly a good firewall to not ending up with stuff on your computer. From my years of experience as a PC tech, I can tell you just about everybody's PC is loaded up with shit they have no clue about. And clearing your browser history is the virtual equivalent to sweeping a mess under the rug.
