posted 3 months agoHi & thanks for reaching out to Ghostery!
Based on user feedback and usability tests, we have moved the global pause button to Settings (accessible from Ghostery panel --> Burger Menu --> Privacy Protection) and have “Trust this site” available and accessible with one click which is scoped to pausing Ghostery on the present site only and for a selected time.
A bit of background for moving the global “Pause Ghostery” button to settings: Many of our users were pausing Ghostery for a specific local and time bound reason and forgetting to turn it on, so they were unknowingly browsing the web unprotected.
We hope this makes sense. For any questions, further feedback, comments, please message us anytime at support@ghostery.com.
Best,
Ghostery team
