The only way to ensure privacy is working is for it to be open and transparent. The EFF's Privacy Badger is the only web app I know of that algorithmically decides what to block which means it's always up to date -- as opposed to whitelists and blacklists that can fall out of date -- and more importantly if you know the algorithm then you can immediately understand how it works without needing to reference the decisions made for thousands upon thousands of white/black decisions that you could never hope to double-check yourself.
