Ghostery – Privacy Ad Blocker by Ghostery

by thunderstrike23, 2 years agoEver since the most recent update, it's had trouble detecting ads/trackers/etc on some sites. It'll say 'zero' and I'll get in-page popups and banner ads anyway. Also rather dislike that the 'restrict site' option appears to be missing now.
