Privacy Badger

I like it.

Some rare sites either started loading slowly or not loading at all without disabling the extension

Must have! Independent Ad blocker / Privacy protection / Anti-tracking tool!

I don't understand how in the past videos would be blocked because I enabled them to be blocked, but now no. Privacy Badger now is letting in what it is supposed to block. I don't know what happened to this once very good blocker. It's getting worse.

Can't use translate with Privacy Badger on. Please fix

This was a great blocker, however, now it allows auto play videos even when I have them disabled in the settings. This just started. I don't understand how in the past videos would be blocked because I enabled them to be blocked, but now no.

Works too good. A website will work one day, and then the next day, going forward, they're blocked. No setting to exclude websites.

It's the perfect sidekick to uBlock Origin or lite . uBlock blocks the ads, and Privacy Badger catches the sneaky trackers that slip through

works great

Excellent!!! It´s Great App

Love it

well I don't know if it blocks government but 3 stars overall,great extension,uwu

EFF have always created the easiest to use privacy products. I just install this extension then forget about it. On the very rare occasions that it breaks a website it's simple to investigate why.

Never have to think about it now that it's installed. Great program.

easy peasy!

Thank you EFF for common sense tracker constraints

too many settings are enabled by default

love this extension but i also would like Privacy Possum on chrome i miss that

So useful and FREE! Also so easy to use! I can't find a reason not to have this extension. 5/5

I can't give it up in my browser, I recommend it.

It ain't perfect, but it does a fine job of preventing us from being bought by billionaires and privacy marketers, and it keeps on doing it though it keeps on avoiding transactionalism. No question it earns its keep.

Love it. First step in stopping surveillance pricing. Recommended!

I personally love it and have been using it for years. Top tier extension.

beautiful

Does what it says, love it!

Brilliant for privacy-concerned people.

This extension is essential for anyone concerned about security.

I use Privacy Badger with Ublock Origin Lite together. Yes, these two can work together and don't conflict with each other. Privacy Badger does allow you to selectively block trackers/ads with a built in slider. Privacy Badger says it's not an adblocker but it does block many ads in addition to trackers. With UBO Lite and Privacy Badger together, you are secure from ads/trackers as best as you can be.

10/10. Must have extension for everybody

When installed, opened a web page which I did not request and demanded that I pin the extension to the toolbar before it would allow me to see the contents of the page. This extension functions without this. This may be your recommended behaviour, but absolutely go and screw yourself with a crowbar, do not attempt to force it like this.

Way easier than other extensions to use and it just works.

Super usefull, would totally recommend. It blocks any possible tracker on any website. Please consider using this extension if you want to be safe with these things.

Privacy Badger was created to prevent companies from collecting your data without your consent. It will never share data about your browsing (unless you explicitly choose to share it by filing a broken site report). Privacy Badger only asks for permission to read data on the websites you visit so that it can automatically detect and block trackers. You're right to be careful about extensions that request this permission, but basically all top tracker blockers require this permission to protect you. It does NOT mean Privacy Badger is spying on you (https://privacybadger.org/#Is-Privacy-Badger-spying-on-me). For more information, you can reach out to [email protected], read our extension permissions explainer, (https://github.com/EFForg/privacybadger/blob/master/doc/permissions.md), or read our Privacy Policy (https://www.eff.org/code/privacy/policy).

Privacy Badger isn't just another blocker; it's an intelligent privacy shield specifically designed to stop non-consensual third-party tracking, enhancing your online anonymity. - Focuses on Privacy: Its primary goal is to detect and block invisible trackers (like third-party cookies and scripts) that monitor your activity across different websites without your consent. - Learns As You Browse: Unlike relying solely on lists, Privacy Badger automatically learns to identify and block domains that appear to be tracking you based on their behavior. - Developed by the EFF: Created and maintained by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), a leading non-profit defending digital rights. This ensures its focus is purely on user privacy – it's free, open-source, and trustworthy. - Works Out of the Box: Simply install it, and Privacy Badger starts protecting you immediately by observing and blocking trackers automatically. No complex configuration is needed for excellent protection. - Empowers Users: While automatic, it provides clear visual feedback on what it's doing and allows users to easily override its decisions if needed (though rarely necessary). That's it! Keep Privacy Badger enabled alongside your content blocker for a layered defense. It's an essential tool for anyone concerned about online tracking and wanting to reclaim their digital privacy. Huge thanks to the EFF for developing and maintaining this vital extension. Highly recommended for everyone!

This is collecting my data without my consent.

So unfortunately, I am only allowed 5 starts as the maximum amount I can rate. I would do 10/10 because this extension is just that useful, simply put. And it does not harass me consistently about buying their subscription or donating any amount to anywhere, I absolutely love it. The devs really did a good job on this one. Solid creation.

It works pretty well, and it has all the features

Excellent extension. Minimal. Leaves no trace :)

Absolutely genius

Well done!

In this new era of Manifest V3 extensions, Privacy Badger offers very good tracking protection. Websites work. It's easy to use and regularly updated. Backed by the EFF. What's not to like? :)

Not perfect, but behavior based adblocking is really smart. EFF is an amazing org.

Best idea since sliced bread!

Works like a charm!

Only been using it for a day and have seen very impressed with it so far.

Nice

good

Does the job, but I'm constantly having to renew permissions. It gets annoying.

I use it alongside Vivaldi's built-in tracking protection for the embedded media placeholders, and adding the GPC signal. (Sadly, it no longer auto-detects new trackers, because someone figured out how to track you using *that*, so it uses a pre-generated list now unless you *really* want to turn learning back on.)
