by petra, 2 years agoGhostery blocks less and less and runs more and more unsecure! the plug-in gets stuck after a firefox crash and hast to be re:installed to run again!
On the other hand it blocks to much, like age popups and the paypal popup to pay something!

posted 2 years agoHi there,
Thanks for your feedback! Please reach out to support@ghostery.com with examples of sites where we block too much.
Regarding Ghostery getting stuck after a Firefox crash - it could be possible that Firefox leaves a profile in a corrupted state in this case. Your help would be important in trying to reproduce it. We would be happy to help fix the issues you are experiencing!
Best,
Ghostery Team

- Rated 5 out of 5by Jasper, 4 days agoFor me the best ad / tracker blocker on the market. And it comes with a great UI.
- Rated 5 out of 5by kit26, 4 days agoAppears to block all ads across my web browser, including on youtube, pinterest and e-newspapers. I have noticed a difference.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 19891389, 7 days agoThe problem is that the blocker is detected by YouTube and they repeatedly crash the site so you uninstall the extension, would recommend getting Unlock origin and deactivating teh AdBlock feature for now

- Rated 5 out of 5by Bobby Tables, 8 days agoIt certainly blocks ads and other tracking elements well. The winning functionality for me is the ability to automatically reject cookie consent notices. For the handful of sites where some critical functionality breaks, I just switch to a different browser without any add-ons. This is a must-have for any Firefox installation.
