- Rated 5 out of 5by Shaun de Bastion, 8 years agoI found out about Ghostery a few years ago at New York Comic Con; they had a booth open where I asked a few questions and I'm glad I did! Ghostery is an absolute must-have-installed for any and every web browser. Before making the switch to Firefox, I used Chrome and Safari and I usually make it an extremely point to make sure that Ghostery is installed, on any and every browser I use!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Mariah , 8 years agoWhen you install this no customize window pops up (like in the ff desktop version). Even when I go to the ghostery add on page there are no settings,i even tried disabling and enabling the extension which worked for another extension. I guess I'll have to uninstall and rethink ghostery.

Pamala Phillips - Rated 1 out of 5by H Vallo, 8 years agoThe latest updates have slowed down navigation. It was once great, now I do not like and it's also unsafe for privacy. I have uninstalled it. I prefer other products lighter, more secure and from independent developers.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12813524, 8 years agoEstensione davvero utile in quanto mi ha permesso di ridurre drasticamente lo spam sulla mia casella di posta yahoo (da 10 al giorno a 1 massimo 2 alla settimana), unica pecca ogni qualche giorno si disconnette da sola dal mio account e lo capisco in quanto ricevo puntualmente delle spam... allora controllo ed effettivamente devo rifare il login! se qualcuno può aiutarmi ne sarei grato.... 5 stelle mancate solo per questo bug più che difetto
- Rated 4 out of 5by Charles Foster, 8 years agoGhostery is aimed at the paranoid among us. It's designed to inform a user about the trackers that are following her as she browses a site. What it does well is provide an unobtrusive set of notifications and graphics about the technologies working behind the scenes to show ads, track clicks, integrate social media, and monitor the site's engagement. Honestly, without it I would have no clue by whom (and where) I'm being tracked. Even beyond that, though, it gives you easy, custom control over which trackers to trust and when. I can tell it to block a tracker on a single site, or multiple ones. I could even go dark, blocking all of the trackers Ghostery knows of and any new ones it finds.
But as much as it informs and reassures, a few things do trouble me. Given that it is an add-on aimed at security, I was expecting that the full functionality would be available without any registration. Unfortunately, some of Ghostery's advanced features are hidden behind a login wall (albeit a free one). More to the point, the add-on comes with "page and tracker data" sharing automatically enabled, rather than defaulting to privacy and letting users freely consent to that sharing. I'm sure I'm not alone in worrying what the folks at Ghostery are doing with that data.
For better or for worse, this add-on will open your eyes about the zoo of data-hungry trackers following your every click.
