Ghostery – Privacy Ad Blocker by Ghostery
Review by Firefox user 14458892
Rated 2 out of 5
by Firefox user 14458892, 8 years agoLike so many other users within the last few days I have removed Ghostery for wanting to "access all data". I don't believe that it should be allowed to do that at all and seems extremely intrusive. Thank you for the time i've been with you but I shall now be using a different app that doesn't feel the need to see all of my passwords.

posted 8 years agoHi, there, in order for Ghostery to block trackers and ads, it needs to be able to detect and take action on elements of a web page as you browse. We do not record sensitive information, record browsing history, or disclose user data. Note that despite the prompt being new, Ghostery is not introducing any new permissions with the update. You can read about this in greater detail on our FAQ page, here: https://www.ghostery.com/faqs/why-am-i-being-prompted-to-approve-an-update-from-ghostery/

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19987259, 12 days agoBeen using it on mobile and on my computers alike, works like a charm, does what it said, not in the way. If adblocker means something, Ghostery might be the closest to the definition

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20152412, 14 days agoIf your entire reason for existing is to allow people to avoid annoying pop up ads on the internet, DON'T force an annoying pop up ad on them demanding a review... And DON'T make that ad impossible to delete without exiting the browser... And DON'T then act as if you didn't do any of this when you quite rightly get roasted in the reviews.
