Anyone tried it and can recommend this addon beside uBlock Origin, uMatrx, Decentraleyes and Firefox Containers? |

I have been using the addon and I don't have any problem with it now. There used to be a problem when I tried to log in on SteamDB.info but this issue has been fixed. I cannot really tell how much additional privacy this provides for someone who has installed all the addons mentioned above. |

Replace Privacy Badger with Privacy Possum? |

It isn't clear to me how adding this would be better than the combination of add-ons we currently recommend, which pretty much cover all bases. |

I have explained that Privacy Badger could provide a misleading sense of privacy in #335. I have just noticed that there exists a similar add-on, for Chrome and Firefox, called Privacy Possum, which claims to be stricter than Privacy Badger. It might be worth a look at its claims on its Github repository. Apparently, it is developed by someone who works at EFF, and has worked for 6 months on Privacy Badger.
