GhosterySupport last edited byBonjour! 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 !

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
UBlockAll 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.
For any type of questions or concerns, please reach out to support@ghostery.comBest,

@carlos-rss: Precisely my findings as well. I have also used Ghostery for years. Today I switched to uBLock Origin which provides more control as Ghostery 8.12.6 used to.

@opera-comments-bot "This extension may have been corrupted". it says in Opera Browsers
Removed it and reinstalled it but still the same message and tried it in other browsers in the same machine, no problemo, anyone facing the same problem this morning please ? -

@skarimdeus It's an issue with the new version of Opera... It will probably be fixed eventually... In the meantime you can use this workaround:
Enable Developer mode in Extensions
Look for the extension ID in the extension info... Looks like bbkekonodcdmedgffkkbgmnnekbainbg or something similar...
Click on "Load unpacked"
Navigate to where the extension is stored in the profile: C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Next\Default\Extensions[Extension ID]\That will install the current version of the extension in Developer mode, without security checks... The security checks is what is probably broken in the recent version of Opera since it fails to generate hashes in the extension's metadata folder... The extension won't autoupdate, but at least it will work while we wait for the fix...

@eliotcougar Thanks a lot Buddy ! that worked like a charm ! Can't live without this extension since it seems it's the only one that makes YouTube a livable place to navigate.

Do I need to have Operas own Privacy Protection on when using Ghostery, or would it be better to have it off?
-
SKARIMDEUS last edited by
@maltepruser whether it's on or off it's useless especially when using YouTube...because you will be defenceless and you will be invaded with a lot of shitty ads in YT
Ghostery till now is the only extension that does the job perfectly (even uBlock origin was useless against the new algorithm of YT that forces us to watch them shitty ads)
So make sure that Ghostery is always on ... That's the most important thing IMHO
