I'm on the latest Firefox, 44.02 I have a few privacy and security add-ons like Disconnect, Ghostery, Request Policy continued, No Script, etc. Are any of them known to not play well with each other? e.g. I just allowed yahooapis, via Request Policy, to work with forums.anandtech, and Disconnect says it's blocking it when it's not. When Ghostery is enabled it looks like some of the other add-ons are not working like they did previously when Ghostery was disabled.

From the mozilla disconnect add-on page.

Note about using Disconnect with other filtering add-ons like Adblock Plus: Disconnect is compatible with other filtering add-ons, but if you want Disconnect to show blocking info, uninstall then reinstall any other filtering add-ons you have (i.e., Disconnect must be added first).
I'm not familiar with Disconnect but it looks very similar to Ghostery. I would choose one or the other but you might want to wait for more input.

For now I've uninstalled both Ghostery and Disconnect. Request Policy Continued works pretty good.

Thanks for the reply :thumbsup:
