Please making tracking default off like ad block plus, we get thousands of emails a month wondering why they cannot see their trackers. If it doesn't get changed we can only now suggest to use ad block plus instead of telling them how to disable it.

    Hi!

    We have the EasyPrivacy list which blocks trackers. However, this is an
    optional filter list.

    We use the same filter lists as ABP (apart from their whitelist, as we
    believe that having big companies pay to get their ads whitelisted is
    unethical).

    If this isn't the response you were wanting, please clarify your question.

    I was talking about about the optional "EasyPrivacy" most users say they didn't enable it on ad block for chrome. I tried awhile back and it enabled it by default but now it seems to be disabled by default. We don't care about whitelist we will just tell the thousands that email us with this problem to just to switch to adblock plus.

    Hi Abby,

    Again, Easyprivacy is disabled by default. If user want to have this filter list enabled, he must go to Options and enable this filter list manually.

    By the way, ABP has same functionality, so it doesn't matter which extension (AdBlock or Adblock Plus) are you using.
