Ghostery helps you browse smarter by giving you control over ads and tracking technologies to speed up page loads, eliminate clutter, and protect your data.
### Why Betterfox Loves Ghostery ❤️
* Blocks ads and trackers effectively. Annoyances, too!
* Deploys AI to detect and prevent trackers **not** on popular blocklists. (And if a tracker isn't blocked, then the request is [modified and anonymized](https://0x65.dev/blog/2019-12-19/blocking-tracking-without-blocking-trackers.html) to prevent site breakage.)
* Deploys AI to detect and prevent trackers _not_ on popular blocklists. (And if a tracker isn't blocked, then the request is [modified and anonymized](https://0x65.dev/blog/2019-12-19/blocking-tracking-without-blocking-trackers.html) to prevent site breakage.)
* Clears cookies from tracking domains that you did not visit as first parties.
* Enables language-specific filters [automatically](https://github.com/ghostery/ghostery-extension/issues/22#issuecomment-526841301) based on your browsing habits (without any data leaving your browser).
* Plus, [your data usage is reduced by more than 100x](https://cliqz.com/en/magazine/cliqz-developers-revolutionize-ad-blocker-architecture). Instead of always downloading the complete filter lists after an update, only the entries that have actually changed are updated.
