Do Not Track Me vs Disconnect

[yigido]

Which one is better than the other ?
I wonder which one is better on its way. I do not want Ghostery!
Only these two, from now thanks for your recommends and explanations.
by the way I am using DoNotTrackMe in the Opera.

Personally I liked DNTMe... Don't know if its better than Disconnect or not.. Now they have integrated MaskMe which I did not like.. So I'm not using it now..

@yigido, it's as though you read my mind! I was, in fact, going to start a post just like this except I considered matching DoNotTrackMe (installed on Chrome this morning) up against Zenmate which I have had on Firefox the last 2 weeks. Like you, I'd moved away from Ghostery since it feels like a chore having to re-select the options to 'block all' each time it updates.
Right here & now I choose DoNotTrackMe. In time we shall see!

I agree with you, @KaptainBug! I am liking DoNotTrackMe. ..and I actually 'saw' Privacy Badger in my search for DNTM!
I'll read more about it too. As for Disconnect it's visually more impressive on Chrome than Firefox, & I've read (here) that Disconnect has less delaying effect than Ghostery. Even so, I'm just not sold on Disconnect.

You can block newly added trackers by default in ghostery...
Check "Block new elements by default" under Advanced options..

Thanks mates for the replies. Privacy badger looks like a toy for me. It needs some time.
I am now waiting with Do Not Track Me by Abine. It is working good now. by the way KaptainBug,
you can close the maskme in the preferences. see

Thanks. I am not using it for a while, so I was not aware of it..
Now I'm using self-destructing cookies, which I like it a lot..

Any Opera version of it or Chromium vesion

I think self- destructing cookies is available only in Firefox..

Maybe this one only a alternative

IMO the approach of self-destructing cookies/vanilla cookie manager is better than the conventional approach of scanning the pages for trackers. Companies like Abine/Ghostery/Disconnect need to keep track of newly released advertising companies and add them to their blacklist.. But SDC doesn't need any blacklist, it just deletes all third party cookies on a page, and deletes the first party cookie when the tab is closed. How cool is that.. I find this extremely useful, fast and efficient..
