Does not follow "privacy by default", but requiers one opt-out to avoid one's data to be sold to third parties.

Hi!

Ghostery does not sell user data. The Human Web, which you can choose to opt in or out of, is an open source technology built by our parent company Cliqz, that provides anonymous group data to help create and improve the browser security features we provide. If you would like to read more about the Human Web, here is a link to our FAQ page where this is covered in detail:

https://www.ghostery.com/faqs/human-web-data-collected/

And here is a direct link to our open source code on GitHub for your review:

If you have any questions, please reach out to us via support@ghostery.com

Happy Browsing!

    I am afraid to use it because of opinion of most "advance users" or ublock itself that using different blocker does not compliment with other blocker extensions, but ghostery with ublock makes my preloading faster and better. So ghostery is a big help.

    In addition to anti-tracking, I love the Never Consent toggle so I don't have to wade through those cookie consent banners.

    Easy to custom use it, and see the blockers.

    how to manually block missed ads?
  • by GalaxyGlimmer, 6 days ago
    A top tier extension to add to your browser, pretty much plug & play situation. I do link my account to sync across my devices I use this extension.

    Makes a lot of websites actually usable since it blocks all ads. I also like the menu where you can see what kind of content it blocks. Recommend
