Ghostery blocked

One more strange blocking: trying to setup Ghostery (I use the Firefox extension), the extension says, while I try to connect it, "We encounter a problem".

Access to their website ( https://www.ghostery.com/ ) give this error (it's not a blocked page): "Secure Connection Failed"

 

If I untick "Tracking protection", all works well.

 

Silly behaviour: Ghostery is a do-not-track-me extension ! Smiley Surprised

 

(and BTW: there's a tracker on this page, Adobe Dynamic Tag Management !)

    Hello,

     

    F-Secure Freedome Tracking Protection also able to mark it as "tracking attempts" about their domain (but - I tried only to open Ghostery website);

    Mainly as with browsing protection false positives (or other concerns) there should be useful transfer it to F-Secure Labs:

    https://www.f-secure.com/en/web/labs_global/submit-a-sample#sample-url

     

    With my own experience - "most of visible false positives" can be there long time.. and just with transfer by F-Secure SAS there can be changes;

     

    Or if... it designed situation -> so F-Secure Labs able to do response about it;

     

    Thanks.
