About this extension

Automatically learns to block hidden trackers. Made by leading digital rights nonprofit EFF to stop companies from spying on you.

Read the publisher’s full description

Privacy Badger automatically learns to block hidden trackers. Privacy Badger is made by the leading digital rights nonprofit EFF to stop companies from spying on you. Privacy Badger sends the Global Privacy Control signal ( https://globalprivacycontrol.org/ ) to opt you out of data sharing and selling, and the Do Not Track signal ( https://www.eff.org/issues/do-not-track ) to tell companies not to track you. If trackers ignore these signals, Privacy Badger will learn to block them. Besides automatic tracker blocking, Privacy Badger replaces potentially useful trackers (video players, comments widgets, etc.) with click-to-activate placeholders, and removes outgoing link click tracking on Facebook and Google, with more privacy protections on the way. To learn more, see our FAQ at https://privacybadger.org/#faq To get help or to report bugs, please email extension-devs@eff.org. If you have a GitHub account, you can use our GitHub issue tracker at https://github.com/EFForg/privacybadger/issues
