Can ghostery do 16 things hosts do for speed, security, & reliability:

1.) Protect vs. malicious sites (past ads)
2.) Protect vs. fastflux botnets + stop communique to C&C servers
3.) Protect vs. dynamic dns botnets + stop communique to C&C servers
4.) Protect vs. DGA botnets + stop communique to C&C servers
5.) Protect vs. downed DNS (reliability)
6.) Protect vs. DNS redirect poisoned dns
7.) Protect vs. trackers
8.) Protect vs. spam
9.) Protect vs. phishing
10.) Protect vs. bandwidth caps
11.) Get you by a dnsbl
12.) Keep you off dns request logs
13.) Speed up surfing by adblocks & hardcoded fav. sites
14.) Work on anything webbound (e.g. stand-alone email programs) multiplatform.
15.) Give you easily controlled data
16.) Block ads more efficiently in cpu + memory use vs. addons

* ANSWER ="NO" to each on Ghostery doing all that let alone as well as hosts do!

APK

P.S.=> Addons do FAR less than hosts do & FAR less efficiently - hosts by way of comparison, do MORE w/ less + Hosts start w/ the IP stack before REDUNDANT inefficient addons BEGIN to operate (as 1st resolver queried):

Ghostery (Advertiser owned) - "Fox guards henhouse" -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G...

Addons add complexity/room for breakdown/exploit + from a slower mode of operations (usermode = more messagepassing overheads vs. hosts in kernelmode).

ClarityRay DETECTS browser addons like Ghostery & blocks them (not hosts) via native browser methods.

What's better than ghostery by FAR?

See subject: Advertiser's open-bid networks allowed malware makers to infest us, & THEY are complaining folks block ads? Give me a "f'ing" break already!

* I can put up a LOT more evidence than this, but from the mouth of CISCO systems themselves, I think it does the job:

Online Ads Are More Dangerous Than Porn, Cisco Says: -> http://news.slashdot.org/story... ... And they wonder WHY folks are blocking ads! Why was HBO TV so successful? It gave folks what they wanted on TV (& that wasn't tracking, infecting, or slowing up TV - online ads ARE!).

This little shenanigan? It looks like a "p.r. put-up job" to me, some dirty payoff possibly... not saying it is, but I'm NOT the only person here speculating that much either.

Can PrivacyBadger do 16 things hosts do for speed, security, & reliability:

1.) Protect vs. malicious sites/servers (past ads)
2.) Protect vs. fastflux botnets + stop C&C communique

6.) Protect vs. DNS redirect poisoned dns
7.) Protect vs. trackers
8.) Protect vs. spam

10.) Protect vs. caps
11.) Get you past a dnsbl

13.) Speed up surfing by adblocks & hardcoded fav. sites
14.) Work on anything webbound (ie email programs) multiplatform.
15.) Give you easily controlled data
16.) Do all that & block ads better than addons more efficiently in cpu cycles + memory usage

...apk

I filter using hosts files vs. threats & slowdowns online BUT I get back speed via adblocking + hardcoded fav sites @ the TOP of my hosts file. Ads represent up to 50% of many sites now, HUGE savings there (& yes, I am filtering) + calling out to LOCAL RAM caching the hosts file for those favs @ the TOP of hosts is by FAR faster than calling out to remote DNS servers!

* Just using what you have already, natively, built-in that is by DEFAULT the 1st resolver queried (& it can be sped up even MORE than the default with a simple registry file merge too, upping the IP stack's priority there over the defaults & disabling the faulty (in windows) slower usermode clientside DNS cache that FAILS with larger hosts files).

I've even AUTOMATED IT to make it as easy as possible, populating the threat blocking/adblocking data from 10 reputable sites in the security community via APK Hosts File Engine 9.0++ SR-2 32/64-bit http://start64.com/index.php?o...

APK

P.S.=> There's SORT OF an "exception" to your rule, in that yes, the filtering slows me SOME, but I get back a HELL OF A LOT MORE IN SPEED the ways I do above... it works & far more efficiently than browser addons (doing more than ANY SINGLE ONE OF THEM CAN for less for more speed, security, reliability, & anonymity online) OR locally setup DNS does, less wastefully... apk

* ANSWER ="NO" to each above on ab+ doing it as well or @ ALL + hosts = already on every device natively.

APK

P.S.=> Ab+ does less than hosts & less efficiently - hosts do MORE w/ less + Hosts start w/ the IP stack before REDUNDANT inefficient addons BEGIN to operate (as 1st resolver queried):

Ab+'s 128mb memory inefficiency http://cdn.ghacks.net/wp-conte... (hosts consume 3-11mb using my program initially).

+

ClarityRay defeats it by dumping addons in use in a browser via native browser methods!

+

Ab+'s paid to not do its job http://www.businessinsider.com...

Ab+ adds complexity from a slower mode of operations (usermode = more messagepassing overheads vs. hosts in kernelmode).

What's best?
