We’ve made the difficult decision to sunset the Ghostery Private Browser (formerly known as Dawn). While it’s always tough to retire a product, this change reflects the evolution of the mobile web and our commitment to protecting your privacy more effectively across the platforms you already use.

Is there any reason to use Ghostery with uBlock Origin?

[–] HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

It didn't have access to add-ons.

[–] AlecSadler@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

I didn't even know this existed and I use Ghostery.
