    This alternative is disputed. Adblock Plus is still a legitimate alternative to Ghostery, but it might have issues that some users think are important.

    Adblock Plus focuses on blocking ads, but Ghostery focuses on blocking trackers.

    Adblock does what it says on the tin, but it's not a tracker blocker. It is in no way an alternative to Ghostery.

    Adblock Plus focuses on blocking advertisements. While it can block tracking, it doesn't have an interface created for it like Ghostery does.

    Adblock Plus is about blocking ads. Ghostery is about blocking trackers. They're complementary. One is not a substitute for the other.

    Just as webpages grew bloated with ads, so too have ad blockers grown bloated with little-used filtering rules and features that sap their speed and hog your computer or device’s disk space, CPU cycles, and memory.
