- Rated 1 out of 5by TeHoDenN, 7 years agoJe suis utilisateur de Ghostery depuis plusieurs années mais la, cette dernière mise à jour ralenti énormement mon firefox. Un des processus de firefox reste entre 20 et 40% d'utilisation CPU. Le navigateur ne répond plus quelques secondes régulièrement. l'utilisation de Bing marche mal, la page est en chargement permanent (la partie où l'on voit si on est connecté à son compte microsoft n'apparait jamais). Plus il y a d'onglet plus Firefox se met à figer pendant plusieurs secondes de façon fréquente et cela dégrade complètement l'utilisation. J' ai tenté de désinstaller et de réinstaller l'extension mais ça n'a rien changé. Symptômes constatés sur 2 pc différents. Tous ces problèmes disparaissent une fois Ghostery désactivé. J'espère un correctif rapidement car jusqu'ici, cette extension est top, si ça reste comme ça, je vais passer à Disconnect ..
- Rated 1 out of 5by Tiago, 7 years agoThe single most annoying plugin I've ever seen. Great they stop trackers, but can they STOP advertising themselves for a single second?
It's impossible, this god damn extension is always poping up to say something about itself or its developers...

posted 7 years agoAppreciate the Feedback. The notifications can always be turned off from the notifications section of the options menu just as an FYI. Sorry to see you go. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13428532, 7 years agoВесело мигает кнопкам, крутит колесики, бегают циферки полная имитация бурной деятельности. По факту - ноль, дупло., дыра черная.. То-ж rutracker.org хоть и определился как сайт из списка но открыть не осилило. Удаляю нах и самоделкиных соорудивших подобный высер в ЧС.

posted 7 years agoHi affe19, that link is actually for our Android App and it shows that we do not have any trackers on it: "Privacy report for Ghostery Privacy Browser: 0 trackers, 7 permissions found." (quote from that website). - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13512288, 7 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Dark_Ronius, 8 years agoThis is either the 3rd or 4th review, I can't remember now, of VALID reasons why I no longer use Ghostery. You can also add to those reasons that you are trusting your privacy and security with a company that seems content to silence critical reviews in order to keep its high rating on AMO. I believe this is incredibly relevant for an add-on that claims to make the internet more transparent... If they cannot even be transparent themselves!
It was after my first or second review was posted that I refused to use Ghostery anymore. I was hoping they would reimplement the features of the old version (advanced cookie blocking, tracker blocking) but this is clearly a route they do not wish to go down anymore. How about, rather than deleting this review, you take the time to respond to my criticisms? (I have re-posted this review to my personal GitHub and Pastebin, just in case it gets taken down AGAIN).
