Rated 4 out of 5
by spurkl3z, 6 years agoi really like the addon and more so the devs' mentality with it, although id like easier managing of which domains you allow block cookies and block, theres a couple thousand of them and honestly i wish to at least block all cookies of every single one of them. but clicking each one individually isnt something im gonna spend my time on lol. other than that, good work!

posted 6 years agoHello and thank you!
Generally speaking, I suggest leaving the sliders alone and letting Privacy Badger do its job automatically. Privacy Badger learns to block a domain once it sees that domain track you on three different websites. The idea is to stop trackers from following you around the Web; being allowed to load once or twice should not be a big deal.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Kirk, 18 days ago"Auto block trackers" sounds good.
But the reality is, this caused so many troubles.
It breaks so many websites, so I often had to turn it off.
In the end, I just stopped using this.Developer response
posted 18 days agoIt would be great to know which websites broke, so that we could fix them for all Privacy Badger users. Feel free to email extension-devs@eff.org - Rated 5 out of 5by Th4t, 19 days ago
