Ghostery Browser Add-on Review
Ghostery is an excellent Firefox add-on designed to prevent sites from tracking your activity on the net. It blocks trackers, web bugs, pixels, and beacons from over 400 ad networks like Facebook and Google Analytics. The add-on reveals the identity and script sources of these trackers, offering detailed information about cookies and enhancing user privacy.
Ghostery alerts users to tracking attempts and allows for easy management through the Firefox taskbar. When trackers are detected, the add-on turns red, highlighting the threats and providing warnings. Users can also collaborate through GhostRank, improving the add-on's effectiveness without compromising privacy. However, some users may find Ghostery slightly intrusive and experience occasional crashes on Firefox.
