Ghostery – Privacy Ad Blocker by Ghostery

by roarTheLoneWolf, 6 years agoExtension has worked extremely well in the past with good control options to block even just individual trackers. However, this week Ghostery has suddenly stopped working on Facebook and Twitch which I now receive ads. Some ads show up on other websites as well but they are sporadic and appear but seem "broken". Hopefully, Ghostery will work on this soon! Unwanted ads are annoying! Especially a couple in a row!
Month Later and Ghostery now completely does not work.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19945542, 7 days agoI use ghostery with another adblocker, i use the extension for the track blocker feature. It produces interesting information on the amount of tracking, is easy to enable/ disable if need be. I also appreciate the newsletter, web privacy and security oriented. Ghostery also produces very interesting data on the Web, as I understand it, thanks to it's ad tracker blocker activity. I m really glad the project exists
