This kind of addon is really what I hate. They claim to defend users by blocking trackers but their business model is actually selling your data to that very companies they claim to protect you from.

It's like Adblock plus. They get payed by advertisers to set them on the whitelist, that they of course enable by default because they know the general user will not touch that setting.

Firefox has its own track blocker build in, you can now enable it always on. I additional use ad-nauseam with some tracking filters enabled. It may be counter productive because ad-nauseam actually can click every ad for you in the background to generate false clicks and make them pay more money so they may be able to track you better but I just love that concept.

Replying to the dev below:
1. User data - tracker data. tomatos tomatos.
2. OK how are you making money now? I will not read that article. You are absolutely untrustworthy because you had a parent company like that in the first place. And probably doing some other new shady stuff.

So far this extension has been working very good. I have not noticed any changes in the speed of pages loading. Very informative as well. I am liking this extension more and more!!!

GooD

yes

The latest interface took away a lot of easy functionality and quick access. It looks prettier but less useful. It also causes a lot of problems on a number of sites that the older versions of Ghostery had no issue with. Like blocking audio, comments etc. No matter if I uncheck everything, the only way they work is to disable Ghostery or set the site as trusted.

Give us more to manage pls

This add-on is amazing. It protects me from so many trackers, and I love how you can click on it and see how many trackers websites are trying to get by

Very good Add on. Blocks ads and it's "pause" function works really well for sites that sometimes can't work when the addon is enabled (like Yahoo! mail's search function i.e).
I used to have an adblocker, cookie deleter and a scriptblocker and both have been replaced by Ghostery.

I love it

I can see the appearance of ghosts clearly.

Lightweight and basically invisible, when left to its own devices Ghostery will pop up and inform you of just how many trackers/ads/scripts it is blocking, and then retreat quietly back to your toolbar. Customizing your settings is a breeze, and for the occasional time when you want to suspend it, whitelist a site, or whitelist just a particular web plug (on its most severe settings, which I use, it will block Soundcloud embeds, which I wanted to whitelist, for example), a few clicks around in the toolbar menu will have you back whatever you were doing on the internet.

For me it has been a fire-and-forget operation; between Firefox's generally impressive prioritization of security and Ghostery, I have mostly wiped out the internet security concerns that were bothering me. Good stuff.
