- Rated 1 out of 5by Bernard, a year agoNot compatible with FF 122.0.1
A 'must have' tool with an ensemble of blockers, never fails. Also, never works with the latest FireFox update. I need to enable Ghostery every page, every restart.Developer response

posted a year agoHi there,
Ghostery is committed to protecting your privacy!
The article you mention is from 2013 and refers to a time where Ghostery was owned by Evidon. In 2017, Evidon sold Ghostery to Cliqz GmbH, a German company which amongst other things developed the privacy search engine now owned by Brave. Ghostery GmbH is an independent brand and company located in Munich, Germany.

I wonder if they all got paid to say that. I can't even get the dern thing to install. Another chunk of garbage that makes Android continue to suck.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14034608, 2 years agoIt works well on chrome but terribly on Firefox. I see ads everywhere with the extension enabled.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Lucillus, 2 years agoI gave it a try, but it takes ages to load and allows ads before it loads, which uBlock origin doesn't. Whoever tells you this is better than uBlock is lying to you ;)

posted a year agoHi there, thanks for your review! Here is a comparison between Ghostery and uBlock: https://www.ghostery.com/comparisons/ghostery-ublock-origin - Rated 1 out of 5by Beverly0807, 2 years agoI would LOVE to enjoy this add-on, but it's not working! Today, there were 27 trackers that Ghostery recorded but there is no way for me to manually stop them. What's up with that Ghostery?
Developer response
posted a year agoHi there, please reach out to support@ghostery.com. Ghostery blocks trackers by default, there should be no need for manual interaction to stop them. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17951621, 2 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17393704, 2 years agoI'm seeing ads on YouTube, this extension cannot do its job.
- Rated 1 out of 5by edem87, 2 years agoIt has started failing on youtube. Back to ublock, I guess....

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12011018, 2 years agoKind of defeats the purpose entirely of having an ad blocker if the ad blocker is going to hijack your browser when you open it to pop up its own damn ads.
Developer response
posted a year agoHi there, if possible please reach out to support@ghostery.com. Ghostery is not showing any ads with the Ghostery Tracker& Ad Blocker installed in your Firefox browser. We can help you set it up correctly. - Rated 1 out of 5by Linda M., 2 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Jouban, 2 years agoCette extension collecte trop de données privée pour être honnête. De plus, elle perturbe l'affichage de certains site, comme certains champs obligatoire pour valider un panier!
A désinstaller de toute urgence!!
