- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12343100, 6 years agoWith Privacy Badger losing its manual controls, I decided to stop using that. Gave Ghostery another try. It works most of the time, but has too many problems. It's overzealous blocking things it's not supposed to block. For instance, I get only the blurry thumbnails for many Washington Post photos unless I turn off Enhanced Ad Blocking. It even keeps me logged out of that site unless EAB is disabled. Are you kidding me??? Ghostery also blocks Disqus by default on every site. I shouldn't have to manually unblock it on every site. That's a really dumb waste of my time. In the end, I switched back to Adblock Plus. Maybe not as comprehensive, but not a pain in the neck, either.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14684230, 6 years agoGhostery is highly effective. In some instances it works a little too well. It seems like there may be something in the coding that may in some instances prevent webstreaming. Other than that, it does what it is supposed to do.
