Hello.
The software is excellent. Protects your privacy. But i want to ask something regarding how to use it. what does the green , red and cookie slider mean. privacy badger shows that some are green and mostly are cookie something. Should red means that it will block it and do i need to block it because by default it is center slided. i hope you answers my question

Hello! Please see https://www.eff.org/privacybadger#faq-What-do-the-red,-yellow-and-green-sliders-in-the-Privacy-Badger-menu-mean? for the answer. (You may have to manually copy and paste the entire URL including the question mark, not sure it will get turned into a link properly.)

Generally speaking, I wouldn't worry about the sliders and just let Privacy Badger learn what to block on its own. When Privacy Badger breaks a page, just click on the Disable Privacy Badger for This Site button in the popup.
