      Adblock Plus vs uBlock Origin opinions
      Most users think Adblock Plus is a great alternative to uBlock Origin.
      Allow acceptable ads by default, which is unfair to users hoping to block all ads.

      Ghostery sees the invisible web - tags, web bugs, pixels and beacons. Ghostery tracks the trackers and gives you a roll-call of the ad networks, behavioral data providers, web publishers, and other companies interested in your activity.

      distantignition Ghostery tells you when a website is requesting private information (and offers to block the request). uBlock prevents advertisements from loading.
