Here: [privacy]defense – Add-ons for Firefox
Homepage: Privacy Defense, a browser security extension that protects your privacy.
[privacy]defense makes your browsing experience faster and cleaner by blocking privacy threats commonly found on websites. It also cuts down on data usage on your devices.
Version: 2.0.15
Last updated: 8 months ago (May 29, 2017)
Note: V2.0.15 has been approved! New features and a totally new simple UI.
Introducing Version 2.0.15! Total rework of the UI, threat database & now cross-compatible with Firefox, Chrome & Opera browsers. We took the advice from our reviewers and implemented the alternate Lite/Premium model. Fully functional and free out of the box, but offers addt'l speed improvements and more blocking with a PREMIUM version. We also rewrote the code base using WebExtensions which made the reliability bullet-proof, even when Mozilla releases new updates weekly :0
[privacy] defense makes your browsing experience faster and safer by detecting and blocking privacy threats found on web pages. Big brother is indeed looking over your shoulder as you surf... but not with [privacy] defense installed. The browser extension includes a comprehensive database of threat signatures that is automatically downloaded daily to keep you up to date. This version is free, we intend to release a deluxe version in the near future with even more features. Feel free to make a donation to help us down that path.

"Interesting add-on.
I compared it with other 8 similar anti-tracking add-ons, and PrivacyDefense seems to block lot of stuff.
Also, it is weight-light and doesn't affect browser performance....
The problem is:
1) It is impossible to know what was blocked. It will be nice a log or dashboard detailing blocked items..."
"...Here's to safer surfing w/o big brother watching!"

Seems to work here (have blocked items number on the icon, some ads but privacy problems like avoid profiling and social bugs before all), thanks to developer!

To test effectively (and test ads before all, with your adblocker!..) - use this TEST website:
on linearpublishing.com: All Ads Simutaneously: All Ads Simutaneously
My Results (all 3 add-ons working together) here:
nano Adblocker: 41 items (or 48...)
Adaware Adblock: 37 items(or 44...)
Privacy Defense: 31 items (or 40...) - "social bugs killed" before all.
- but number of items change after restart of website...cause website rotate the ads!
