Hi there, we hope your problems have been fixed by the support team.
Also, we have updated the UI allowing to pause a site from the panel - now there are two options to do this.

Ghostery Team

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out to Ghostery!

Sorry for your experience! We also replied via email.
Based on user feedback, usability tests and the redesign, we have moved the global pause button to Settings (accessible from Ghostery panel --> Burger Menu --> Privacy Protection) and have “Trust this site” available and accessible with one click which is scoped to pausing Ghostery on the present site only and for a selected time.
Many of our users were pausing Ghostery and forgetting to turn back on, so they were unknowingly and unwillingly browsing the web unprotected. We tried to fix that for the user group.

Regarding "The new v10 is broken, it isn't blocking anything." Can you please send us a screenshot of the Ghostery panel with a loaded website to [email protected]? We would love to help fix this for you.

Best,
Ghostery Support

Hi & thanks for reaching out to Ghostery!

Based on user feedback and usability tests, we have moved the global pause button to Settings (accessible from Ghostery panel --> Burger Menu --> Privacy Protection) and have “Trust this site” available and accessible with one click which is scoped to pausing Ghostery on the present site only and for a selected time.

A bit of background for moving the global “Pause Ghostery” button to settings: Many of our users were pausing Ghostery for a specific local and time bound reason and forgetting to turn it on, so they were unknowingly browsing the web unprotected.

We hope this makes sense. For any questions, further feedback, comments, please message us anytime at [email protected].

Hi there,

We understand your frustration! Sorry for that! The Ghostery tracker library updates automatically every 24h but the date does not change in the UI, except you update it manually. The support team communicated this in our email conversations.
We are funneling all our efforts towards an extensively reworked version of Ghostery, adapting to upcoming changes imposed upon browser extensions developers by major industry players.

For more insights into these advancements, we encourage you to explore the following resource: https://www.ghostery.com/blog/category/manifest-v3.

While this is no excuse, we also have a substantial user interface update in the pipeline where the issue you mention will be addressed.
Please have a bit more patience! We're happy to be of service and help protect your privacy online!

Hi there, if possible please reach out to [email protected] with more details. We would be happy to help fix the issue if provided with more details.

What we know at the moment is that sometimes Youtube shows the message "You're offline. Check your connection." Simply reloading the page helps fix this based on our research.

Hi there,

The article you mention is from 2013 and refers to a time where Ghostery was owned by Evidon. In 2017, Evidon sold Ghostery to Cliqz GmbH, a German company which amongst other things developed the privacy search engine now owned by Brave. Ghostery GmbH is an independent brand and company located in Munich, Germany.
