Ghostery is a powerful privacy extension. Block ads, stop trackers and speed up websites.<\/p>\n

Privacy powerhouse Ghostery has more than a million users and is considered one of the best ways to protect yourself on the internet. The add-on blocks third-party trackers AND lets you catch them in the act. With more than a million users, this Goliath seems like a shoe-in, but will it fall at the feet of the David Decentraleyes?<\/p>\n

Fun Fact: The USS Constellation (1854)<\/a> is one of the most famous ghost ships in the United States. The museum ship is said to be haunted by its former captain and crew.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a>Privacy<\/em><\/p>\n

Protects you against tracking through “free”, centralized, content delivery. It prevents a lot of requests from reaching networks like Google Hosted Libraries, and serves local files to keep sites from breaking. Complements regular content blockers.<\/p>\n

Humble and honest Decentraleyes has an uphill battle to fight. With just a smidge over 100k users, the content delivery network (CDN) blocker will have to really pull out the stops to see victory in this one. The add-on keeps your browser from contacting third-party CDNs that can slow down your browsing experience and potentially collect your private data<\/a>. It\u2019s new and novel, but will it be enough? Let\u2019s find out!<\/p>\n

Fun Fact: CDNs distribute files over data centers across the globe, making the web faster. Some free CDNs, however, can also serve up web trackers to generate advertising revenue. Who knew?<\/p>\n
