Rated 5 out of 5
by FudgeFury, 6 years agoI am really enjoying this extension, however I have noticed that the number on the badger does not update back to 0 or no number when I go back to the homepage (default FireFox homepage). It will stay at whatever the number was on the previous website. When I open a new tab (opens default FireFox homepage), the icon resets back to no number.
I find this just a little bit annoying but it's not a big deal, though I'd prefer if the icon updated itself appropriately when I go back to the homepage.
**UPDATE** The icon actually does not update whenever you're on a website with no trackers unless you refresh the browser or open a new tab

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19041341, 10 days agoPrivacy Badger is a must-have extension for anyone serious about protecting their privacy online. Developed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, it's both trustworthy and effective. I really appreciate how it automatically learns to block invisible trackers without breaking websites, unlike some other blockers that need constant tweaking.
The interface is clean and easy to use, and I love that it respects user autonomy—it doesn’t rely on predefined lists but intelligently reacts to tracking behavior. It runs quietly in the background, doing its job without slowing down my browsing experience.
This is one of those rare add-ons that just works. Huge thanks to the EFF team for making a free, open-source tool that empowers users to take control of their data.
Highly recommended! - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12791365, 10 days ago
