I'm not sure an addon per tracker is web scale.


Firefox already has a built-in option to block all tracking[1], the reason why this add-on exists is that it lets you keep Google into a separated Firefox Container[2]

Regular trackers can be blocked outright. One may need to use fb and google from time to time.
