https://lifehacker.com/ad-blocking-extension-ghostery-actually-sells-data-to-a-514417864
I used to use it, long ago, until I learned of this information. And once I realized I had been duped, uninstalled it. Never looked back since then and used better addons that ACTUALLY did the job.

posted 8 years agoTo be fair, that article never had the facts correct. Plus it is 5 years old. Ghostery is now open source so you can see for yourself what's going on behind the scenes. https://github.com/ghostery/ghostery-extension

- Rated 5 out of 5by Olive, 6 days agoI've been using this extension in tandem with a couple of others for about four or five years. Works great and it is one of the first I install when configuring Firefox on a new machine.
