Thought that downloading Ghostery I would not get the Cookie Consent bar, but still get them. What else to do? I am using Firefox, OS 64 bit

Since the latest android update Ghostery does not play in the background or pop up "Youtube ABC" playing as a notification. (playing video on youtube not picked up as media?)

I only use ghostery for facebook because I keep my cookies separate. Anyhow as of a few weeks ago I can't see the last few digits on the right hand side.

Ghostery private ad blocker will not instal from iPad App Store. My safari is 15.7. Error message implies my iOS version is less than 15.0?
