[liberationtech] Ghostery, NoScript.. add-ons frequently phone home

[Timur Mehrvarz]

This exists already: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock

On my PC uBlock has replaced AdBlock Edge, Element Hiding helper,
NoScript, Ghostery and RequestPolicy. It's incredibly good. Even
Stallman could use Firefox now.

(Hi Richard, you would still need to add RefreshBlocker,
HTTPS-Everywhere and CockieMonster.)
