Disconnect, <https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/disconnect/>, |
| 8 |
uses the same basic idea as Ghostery, but Disconnect maintains its own |
| 9 |
blocking lists. |

There's also Firefox's built-in tracking protection, enabled by default |
| 12 |
only in Private mode. It uses one of Disconnect's lists -- their |
| 13 |
'basic' list by default, but you can change it to use their 'strict' |
| 14 |
list. To enable it in normal, non-Private mode, go through |
| 15 |
about:config and toggle privacy.trackingprotection.enabled to 'true'. |

AIUI, since the Disconnect extension and the built-in stuff use the |
| 19 |
same lists, having both is redundant. I haven't used Ghostery in a |
| 20 |
long time or the Disconnect extension, so I don't know how these things |
| 21 |
compare feature-wise. |
