                    Ghostery is the best ad blocker I have ever used. I love Ghostery because it gives me control over what I see and share on the web. It also gives me detailed information about the trackers on each site, so I can learn more about how they work and what they do.

                    Benefits:
                    One of the main benefits of using Ghostery's ad blocker is that it prevents targeted ads from appearing on your screen. This can enhance your privacy and reduce unwanted advertisements.
                    Ghostery's ad blocker extension can also help you browse faster and save power consumption. It claims to save up to 25% on power consumption and allows for a faster browsing experience.
                    Ghostery's extension works with popular web browsers like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, providing additional privacy and security features.

                      Bonjour! J'ai fais des recherches hier et quelqu'un qui a eu le même problème conseillait d'aller dans les paramètres et de désactiver Une partie des notification. C'est ce que j'ai fait et le pop-up n'est pas revenu depuis. J'ai l'impression de vous avoir dérangés pour rien au final, mais je vous remercie d'avoir pris le temps de chercher une solution et de me répondre aussi rapidement. J'apprécie beaucoup.

                      C'est ce que nous faisons ! 🙂 Bonne navigation ! 💙 Ghostery Team

                          Since the 10.2.11 update Ghostery no longer works!

                          It doesn't block anything anymore, it doesn't block consent cookies.
                          They simply ended Ghostery!
                          For those who have the previous version 8.12.6, do not update if you can.
                          This version lost all settings that could be made.
                          There is no longer any way to configure total blocking.
                          Common websites now display advertisements for betting sites, but in version 8.12.6 it continues to block everything.
                          The problem is with the new version they created and it is terrible!
                          Inefficient.
                          You now have to open a settings tab in the browser that is useless!
                          It only has a button to turn the blocker on and off (which doesn't block anything)
                          Button for Never Consent (Which keeps appearing)

                          Honestly... as a Ghostery user for years.
                          This is the worst version ever released!
                          Version 8.12.6 has not yet updated on Edge and Google Chrome!
                          While you have this version, be happy, but after updating to 10.2.11 - (Look For Another Blocker!)

                          Adblock
                          UBlock

                          All are better than Ghostery version 10.2.11!!!

                            @carlos-rss Dear Carlos,

                            we are very sorry to hear your are experiencing problems with the latest version. There is clearly something wrong going with your update. Nothing like this should be happening and all trackers and ads should be blocked perfectly well - as they always were.

                            Can you please reach out to support@ghostery.com or post websites that you experiencing problems with here?

                            We are dedicated to help you make Ghostery work for you as it always was for all those years. We also appreciate all the feedback. Hope to hear from you soon.

                                After the last update the extension is unusable primarily because the detailed settings are no longer available... There are many sites that don't work if one of the trackers is blocked, and you have to be able to allow only that specific tracker to run on that specific site... Now you cannot allow/block specific trackers on specific sites anymore... I also would like to allow Google's trackers and ads everywhere, but again that is no longer configurable...

                                  Carlos and eliot are absolute correct and it also leaves files on on my browser since they took the restrict button away. This new version is awful, change it back to the one identical to the firefox extension. Everyone obviously liked it that way.

                                    Hi,
                                    I use "googleearth pro" and some time need to switch to google map, that i made many time in past without any restriction.
                                    With 10.2.11 ver of Ghostery the message from google has avoided by ghostery and i cannot see anything.
                                    Ghostery switched off all back to normal.

                                          @montanagrl5 Hi there, thanks for your message!
                                          We are assuming you mean cookies with "files on my browsers". Historically cookies were small files saved on the computer, nowadays they residue in a cookie store, which is a database so there are no more residual files.
                                          Additionally browser add-ons have no way to touch such files. We conclude that you reached an incorrect conclusion here.
                                          We are dedicated to your privacy online and will bring one update at the time more settings to the extension for power users like you.
