How is Better different?

• Blocks tracking scripts, tracking pixels, and behavioural advertising.

• Uses our unique, hand-curated, and open tracker database based on our own web crawls. Browse the encyclopaedia-like tracker entries on our web site if you fancy learning more. 

• We identify and block the most prevalent trackers. This makes Better’s block list lightweight and effective.

• We base our blocking decisions on the principles of the Ethical Design Manifesto 

• Developed and curated by Ind.ie – that’s Laura and Aral – a tiny two-person-and-one-husky not-for-profit striving for social justice in the digital age.

• Open, transparent, and free as in freedom.



Other features:

• Improves the readability of popular web sites. 

• Spotlights the worst offenders… Did you know that the worst site we found on the web had 172 trackers? Better blocks them all and makes that site 4× lighter and 15.8× faster!

• Blocks blocker blockers (try saying that quickly a few times!) Whenever we can, we try to protect you from sites that try to put you at risk by forcing you to turn off your privacy tools.

• Exceptions enable you to turn Better off for sites that don’t play well with Better. Easily contact us about those sites so we can fix the experience for everyone.
