- Rated 3 out of 5by karakufire, 6 months ago非常に強力に様々なトラッキングを遮断し、多くのサイトの読み込みや動作を軽快にしてくれるので非常に助かっています。ただ、特に認証情報を扱うサイトにおいてはこの強力さが仇となり、例えばRECAPTCHAの動作を阻害してログインなどができなくなってしまうことがあります。こういった認証処理に関わる物は遮断対象から除外出来るとより素晴らしいものとなると思います。
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13744747, 7 months agoI would've rated this add-on 4 stars until a few days ago, when it began blocking Twitter/X website. Disabling the Firefox (v126.0 64-bit) Enhanced Tracking Protection did NOT solve the problem. As soon as I disabled the Disconnect add-on, however, Twitter/X loaded without any problems. Please fix!

- Rated 3 out of 5by Waltraute, 4 years agoLike another reviewer I am suddenly having the problem that Disconnect prevents images appearing on Ebay.co.uk, even if the site is whitelisted. Only started happening TODAY, possibly because of Waterfox Classic July update (running on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS). So not your fault, but needs a workaround.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15408119, 5 years agoSome issues with keep.google.com
Using my work account, I have no problems. Using instead my personal google account, I get about 5 notes to load, out of maybe 100, after which I get an eternal spinning wheel.
Whitelisting the site "keep.google.com" does allow all the notes to load.
There is an option to fill out a form on disconnect.me to report broken sites. Unfortunately, that form does not recognize that sites might have subdomains. So while I can report "google.com" as being broken (which it isn't), it does not allow me to report "keep.google.com" as broken, as it considers anything(?) with multiple dots in it to be an "invalid URL"(!) - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14464668, 5 years ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15221730, 5 years agoVertical and horizontal scroll bars on the extension menu are very annoying.
Extension seemed like it would be useful, but the effed up menu drove me nuts. - Rated 3 out of 5by frostbiten13, 6 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13956739, 7 years agoIt could be improved by making the block of trackers on by default.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Bouffe, 7 years agoSince FF57 I no longer have to Disconnect icon, does it still work?

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13304330, 7 years agoI've just found out about Disconnect through an old LH article, but when I want to install, it wants a shitload of permissions to my tabs and data. Some explanation would be nice. Written by a techie, not by a marketer, please.
Also, reading through a couple of reviews, I find the developer replies are not written by a dev but clearly by a 'communicator', they are typical corporate responses. This makes you sound like an advertising company, not like a bunch of geeks I would trust.
Prove me wrong, I challenge thee.
Sidenote, AMO won't let me post a review without a rating, so I went for the middle ground here. Not gonna dock you points without having used your stuff, but obviously can't give you full score either for the very same reason.Developer response
posted 7 years agoOur Disconnect private browsing extension exposes an API that allows us to redirect connections on websites you visit to about:blank. The extension tells your browser to look for requests that match our blacklist and redirect them, thus preventing them from connecting and being able to track you.
For all of our products, as per our privacy policy (https://disconnect.me/privacy), we do not store IP addresses, DNS lookups, sites/addresses accessed, or anything else. We also never collect any personal information other than what you choose to share, like an email address if you write in for support. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13133532, 7 years agoIt noticeable slows down browser startup if you have a lot of opened tabs :(
