Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

Privacy Badger sends the Global Privacy Control signal (https://globalprivacycontrol.org/) to opt you out of data sharing and selling, and the Do Not Track signal (https://www.eff.org/issues/do-not-track) to tell companies not to track you. If trackers ignore these signals, Privacy Badger will learn to block them.

Besides automatic tracker blocking, Privacy Badger replaces potentially useful trackers (video players, comments widgets, etc.) with click-to-activate placeholders, and removes outgoing link click tracking on Facebook and Google, with more privacy protections on the way.

using it for quite a while, but it started to make problems a couple of weeks ago. I have noticed that it seems to slow Chrome since then. Not sure if there is an incompatibility with recent updates of Win 10.

Five stars all day...except for the regular crashes. I love what this extension does, and the functionality is great...when it functions. It occasionally just stops working, and nothing will load until I uninstall it. After seeing how many sites are tracking me, though, I keep reinstalling it. Fix the bugs, and this is five stars all day.

While I love this thing in theory, it breaks everything. I installed it basically the day it was released, and it worked really well at first, but it's getting worse and worse. Some sites won't load the CSS at all, so the pages look like the 90s. Pretty much any page with video on it won't work. Love it in theory, but they really need to fix it up.

Worked great for about a year, but just started seeing serious issues in Chrome 49 in the past week. Pages either fail to load or the formatting is completely screwed up half the time (and oddly only about half the time).

The best thing I like about it is that it doesn't interfere with other extensions like Blur & uBlock.

Half the time it works, other half it prevents any page from loading with "Waiting for Privacy badger"
