Today we are introducing Badger Swarm, a new tool for Privacy Badger that runs distributed Badger Sett scans in the cloud. Badger Swarm helps us continue updating and growing Privacy Badger’s tracker knowledge, as well as continue adding new ways of catching trackers. Thanks to continually expanding Badger Swarm-powered training, Privacy Badger comes packed with its largest blocklist yet.
I’ve run UBO and Privacy Badger side by side for years. There’s no harm in having both, as UBO has lots of great features besides tracker blocking (I use the element zapper/blocker almost daily, for instance). They work well together.
