    Am I wrong to assume that this doesn’t add anything beyond what uBlock on medium mode does already? Except (perhaps) ease-of-use and the blocking of first-party trackers; if those even exist*.

    Don’t get me wrong; I love EFF’s work and their commitment to digital privacy. I just want to understand if I, personally, would need it.

    Thanks for sharing, have just re-installed Privacy Badger (I previously uninstalled it as I use uBlock Origin) and enabled “Learn to block new trackers from your browsing” in options.

      BTW The BRAVE browser has built in tracking prevention without requiring extension overhead. Works better by default in my experience than either of the two mentioned in the post. YMMV though.
