I was looking at browsers in the Play store and saw the Ghostery browser. It's now apparently based on Firefox, and I assume the Ghostery (plugin/extension) functionality is built in. Does it protect privacy better than other browsers and is it worth trying out? I currently use Firefox on android but I detest it's UI decisions. I've no idea if Ghostery has a different UI or not.

Don't even need Privacy Badger nowadays, uBlock origin does it all.

Out of the box, or do you need to configure uBlock?

@Gnorv @sir_whocampsalot Yeah. There are some neat things you should enable.
