- Rated 5 out of 5by Sandi Fraser, 4 days agoBeen using Ghostery for a few years now, what makes them different is the way they keep in touch with users, good information that they pass along is very helpful and seems to make them more 'human' !!

- Rated 2 out of 5by petra, 6 days agoGhostery blocks less and less and runs more and more unsecure! the plug-in gets stuck after a firefox crash and hast to be re:installed to run again!
On the other hand it blocks to much, like age popups and the paypal popup to pay something!Developer response

Thanks for your feedback! Please reach out to support@ghostery.com with examples of sites where we block too much.
Regarding Ghostery getting stuck after a Firefox crash - it could be possible that Firefox leaves a profile in a corrupted state in this case. Your help would be important in trying to reproduce it. We would be happy to help fix the issues you are experiencing!
Best,

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16299162, 6 days agoI'm NOT techie!! No one wants to be tracked online. Been using Ghostery for 20+ yrs... safely and confidently. Totally trust it.
Love that i can 'pause' it for 30 min if needed to check something it's not allowing (for my safety). Or turn it right back on.
Easy to set and adjust my comfort level of blockage. Now we get Privacy Digest too. Recommended to many others. THANK YOU Ghostery!!Developer response

Ghostery Team - Rated 3 out of 5by Wayfinder, a month agoGhostery is sometimes great, sometimes not so great. I have seen it allow through multiple pop-up "Adult" ads (for X-rated games especially) while triggering the YouTube "We're about to stop your viewing" warning. I understand this is an ongoing war between Google and ad-blockers, and Google needs to wise up both in the number of ads it employs on YouTube and their length (a 30 second ad every 3 minutes on a video is ridiculous). And if Ghostery won't stop X-rated ads, what value is it?
This is a complex field and I sympathize with the company. It does stop a LOT of ads and the settings are versatile (allowing to restrict some sites while blocking others). But it doesn't really do all the job all the time... and the YouTube war is a real problem for the whole industry since Google seems to have no common sense whatsoever.
