- Rated 5 out of 5by edenflare, a year agoDestroys youtube, it needs updating to block youtube from tracking me, when enabled nowadays youtube doesn't work, when disabled youtube works. Hope I don't have toadd youtube to whitelist cause it's full of ads, if this gets updated to work on even with youtube instant 5 star. Thanks
Edit- I'll give anticipatory 5 stars as a gesture of good will from me as I know it will be fixed one day, as I'm choosing to believe in the developer.Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Dave, a year agoas of today 27/10/23 when using ghostery youtube will not load till this add on is disabled
once fixed this add on is a 5 star
update it's 30/10/23 and youtube loads fine now with this add on turned on!!! 5 star again for this - Rated 3 out of 5by Tungstie, a year agoGhostery used to work fine, but something in Youtube's code changed in the last few hours (10.26.23) which makes the page not display at all (just a blown-up video vignette + a broken user menu) unless you disable Ghostery...
Fixed needed quickly please!Developer response

Ghostery Support - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18099673, a year agoI'm sure it blocks some things, but I got it specifically for the cookies popups, and it only gets a few of those. Not very thorough.
