- Rated 5 out of 5by Rook, 8 years agoStraightforward and easy to set up. In response to Rick; you generally never want more than one adblocker. It can create conflicts.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13408111, 8 years ago-An excellent tool, a great extension the only criticism I have to make to it is its hunger for processing the application that ends up leaving us limited to some items.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13407847, 8 years agoto those people who wants to protect
their privacy, I recommend this extension!!! - Rated 1 out of 5by Rick, 8 years agoi remember back in the day i used to use this add-on, this was before uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger. But this add-on doesn't play well with those add-ons installed as well. it clashes with one or both of them and the drop down menu looks weird. Also the settings still don't save on the newest version. i'm probably gonna get an automated type of copy and paste response, "Our users have had issues with this and we are looking into it", which i've been seeing for the longest, probably the past year now, on both addons.mozilla.org and their Facebook page. They just paste the same replies over and over again. it's like they don't have the knowledge to fix the problems, and i don't know this factors into it if at all - https://blog.disconnect.me/no-longer-a-b-corp/
Then this extension uses Dom Storage. Why?
Also, on another topic, why when Google blocked Google Search from https://search.disconnect.me/ about a year and a half ago and you replied on your Facebook page that you guys were looking into it and would fix it. Not only has it not been restored but you guys have been silent. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13324835, 8 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by levdr, 8 years agoI've been using Disconnect in Firefox for years on my Mac. It was brilliant. Today I finally went to Firefox Quantum, reinstalled Disconnect but it doesn't work any more. There's just a green Jigsaw icon that doesn't do anything.
I reported this problem with FF Quantum a year or so ago and it seems the problem has not been fixed. What a pity. Removed the add-on. As it doesn't work any longer my 5 star rating goes to 1. I'm so sorry.Developer response
posted 8 years agoThank you for taking the time to share what you're seeing with our extension as that is definitely not normal. We have had reports of some users encountering issues with the extension, and we've been digging into this issue to get to the bottom of what is going on for these users. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13115620, 8 years agoDisconnect always used to block ads. Then a year or so ago it stopped working with Firefox. After a very long period of time it re-appeared, fixed. Trouble is now it lets ads through when a page loads, but when the page is refreshed the ads disappear. So I don't know whether it's stopping sites tracking me, which I guess is its core purpose.
Edit (Oct 29): Tried re-installing, didn't fix it.
March 15, 2018: Any progress on a fix for this? I've been very patient.Developer response
posted 8 years agoThank you for sharing your experience, and that is very strange. While our extension does not block all ads, it is designed to block those that are privacy invasive. If you haven't, you may want to uninstall then reinstall the extension to be sure it's properly set up since you've had trouble with the extension previously as well. - Rated 5 out of 5by Great King, 8 years agoThanks for this addon. Still tweaking, but it does what it's intended for...
