How to validate ABP's Tracking Protection?

Post by saurabhdua »

Hello folks!

I wish to ascertain ABP's Anti-tracking capabilities against the likes of Ghostery & Disconnect.
Is there a way to accomplish the objective?

I find no relevant Option under the respective head of ABP to peep through the Anti-tracking listings or customization!?

Does ABP really offer Anti-tracking protection too?

Help clear this dilemma.

Inputs will be sincerely appreciated.

Thanks. :-)

Use easyprivacy list (from en/subscriptions ) and disable ghostery / disconnect.

Hello !

Thanks for quoting this reference. My ABP is very much subscribed to this list now.
I wonder...why don't this show up under the drop-down menu when we click - "choose another subscription" ???
Ideally, all the variants that showed up under your quoted URL reference must also show up within configuration screen as well !?

Nevertheless, thanks again. :-)

In the new options page (visible / used in firefox) you can subscribe easyprivacy too.

Nowadays easyprivacy is a must (containing anti-mining filters).
