di Nico, 7 anni faThis kind of addon is really what I hate. They claim to defend users by blocking trackers but their business model is actually selling your data to that very companies they claim to protect you from.
It's like Adblock plus. They get payed by advertisers to set them on the whitelist, that they of course enable by default because they know the general user will not touch that setting.
Firefox has its own track blocker build in, you can now enable it always on. I additional use ad-nauseam with some tracking filters enabled. It may be counter productive because ad-nauseam actually can click every ad for you in the background to generate false clicks and make them pay more money so they may be able to track you better but I just love that concept.
Replying to the dev below:
1. User data - tracker data. tomatos tomatos.
2. OK how are you making money now? I will not read that article. You are absolutely untrustworthy because you had a parent company like that in the first place. And probably doing some other new shady stuff.

pubblicato il 7 anni faHey there.. The business model you are referring to 1. Was never user data, it was tracker information. 2. Is no longer in practice since we split ways with the previous parent company. You can read more about that here: https://www.ghostery.com/blog/ghostery-news/ghostery-acquired-cliqz/
