Safari 12 turns off Ghostery - 09/18/18 04:05 PM
I updated to Safari 12 this morning and, on opening Safari, got a dialogue box saying that Apple has turned Ghostery off because it slows web browsing....and suggesting that other apps like Ghostery are available at the App Store.
I went to my Safari extensions and turned Ghostery back on, while enduring cautions that my web browsing will be slowed down. Frankly, I am quite happy with my browsing speed and, even if there is a slowdown (I saw nothing that I would deem unacceptable), it's a minor trade-off to get the Ghostery functionality.
It seems to me that Apple should ask if I want something turned off.
