| 2024-11-30 |  | | en | good app |
| 2024-09-14 |  | | en | Tool do not work anymore. Very unclear how opting out is done, and when you do opt out and press submit. You meet an error message from their server. |
| 2024-09-13 |  | | en | UI is super sketchy. Dumb wording making it impossible to know if you are agreeing to ads or preventing them. |
| 2024-05-06 |  | | en | It doesn't work. It doesn't do anything at all. |
| 2023-12-12 |  | | en | I loaded Ghostery and I can't see that it does anything either. |
| 2022-09-20 |  | | Doesn't actually do any thing...and I went through the headache of doing all the extra items required before hand on this one, as well as two others -IBA opt out (google) and Goggle Analytics opt out. to ensure that once the exention was loaded it sites would respect things. But nope. Neither one of these do anything. However I found one that DOES work - Ghostery - It Blocks Ads, trackers, you name it perfectly. Even hyperlinks from pages I normally use are sent to a Ghostery page telling you that this is a redirect and may not be safe etc....Didnt expect that. Best thing is when you can click on the extension settings of Ghostery you can SEE the details of what is being blocked--right down to the name, url etc.... Of course you can also edit settings per site as needed. It was free, but at this point I will buy the full pro version. Since it's the first extension that actually protects tracking, ads, and all that garbage that is all over webpages. Amusing part? The stuff that this "Protect my choices" was supposed to block or protect? Was in the Ghostery items. LOL Even after I had specifically stated to be opted out of all that stuff. | |
