- Rated 1 out of 5by Klaas de Eindbaas, 2 months agoToo bad it also hides all cookies-option screen, making it impossible to choose 'opt-out' or 'only necessary'. I don't know if Ghostery does this bc it maybe disables all non-necessary cookies itself, but I don't know Ghostery well enough to know that, I'm not participant in coding Ghostery. So regardless whether its relevant, I'd like to get the choice to click 'Decline All' or eg the Dutch 'Weigeren'. Even if it only was bc the cookies option screen now continuesly pops up and disappears with every new page you click to within a site. It's annoying to say the least. If I'd be given the chance to just click the decline button then that screen is gone 'forever' while I'm on a site, not peek-a-booing on every page I visit wihin that site. And it's worrying to say the most, bc if the decline isn't clicked - then what unwanted cookies are seeping through????

Thanks for your message!
Ghostery’s feature Never-Consent is doing exactly what you are asking for. It automates the interaction with consent dialogues, expressing dissent to tracking. If you would like to click on those consent dialogues yourself, you can toggle off Never-Consent in Ghostery Settings. For any questions, please drop us a message at support@ghostery.com and we're happy to guide further.
Best,

- Rated 1 out of 5by ···, 3 months agoThe new UI is a disaster. Before, I knew exactly what I wanted to block and what not. Now I'm being patronized. That's why I'm still using version 8.12.13 with the automatic updates turned off.

Ghostery Team - Rated 5 out of 5by davva23, 3 months agoI used this while I used Firefox as my browser. It did what it said it would do, has an intuitive user interface and lets you easily see what it is doing.
I recommend it for folks still using Firefox.Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Waterfall, 3 months agoI've been using Ghostery for about 4 years now, really useful to not get flooded by ads.
My father recommended me this to get rid of trackers, wasn't sure about how useful it was to install that kind of extension. Right now I don't feel comfy going on Firefox without my ghostery active.
Really love the feature that refuses cookies on every single page. Prevents me to find the little "continue without accepting", that annoying windows just goes off and you're free to navigate on their website without sending your datas.
Couldn't recommend this extension more ! A big thanks for the team :)Developer response

Ghostery Team - Rated 5 out of 5by mpaduano, 3 months agoNo lie, the first thing I do whenever I install a new Linux OS or reset an Android phone is install ghostry on the browser. Hands down, the best of it's kind.
