- Rated 1 out of 5by hoggys2much, 7 years agoTerrible rubbish extension. I found it to be SLOWING firefox down instead of speeding it up and it blocked me out of some of my most used sites. On one site despite disabling the tracking it still wouldn't let me in. Now that I have disabled it on Firefox everything is working fine.
DO NOT USE THIS RUBBISH ADD-ON!Developer response

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 5957935, 7 years agoIt displays annoying red circle in the corner, or sometimes a big red rectangle, which shows how many counters it blocked. There is no way to switch it off.
PS: with respect to developer's response, I was unable to find the ways to get to settings. When I click the icon, I don't get to settings. Users should not spend time discover how to get rid of annoying alerts (any alert is annoying if it is on the area alotted for displaying webpages), such alerts should be off by default, and getting to settings should be intuitive.Developer response
posted 7 years agoWe don't have a red icon..purple yes... you can turn off all notifications like the alert bubble and counter from the settings > notifications section.

После удаления этого расширения, проблема пропала. Не нашел как добавить в список блокировки в ручную.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14060281, 7 years agoGhostery is breaking our application (by replacing IDs in legitimate requests sent to our backend), causing Denial of Service for our users who have Ghostery installed. Their support has been unresponsive for more than 2 weeks. This is simply not OK.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Ricky, 7 years agoThis is an extension developed by an advertising company. Use Privacy Badger (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/privacy-badger17/) instead.
EDIT: Well, turns out I was completely wrong, Ghostery seems to have been acquired by a more trustworthy company. I'm changing this review to a positive one.Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi there, we are not an advertising company. We are owned by a German privacy company. See here for more info:

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14003365, 7 years agoVery nice. One of the best security add-ons and I also like the name and icon :P. Anyone who thinks Ghostery is spyware is not correct. Ghostery is one of the best add-ons.
