Thanks for sharing, have just re-installed Privacy Badger (I previously uninstalled it as I use uBlock Origin) and enabled “Learn to block new trackers from your browsing” in options.

I’ve run UBO and Privacy Badger side by side for years. There’s no harm in having both, as UBO has lots of great features besides tracker blocking (I use the element zapper/blocker almost daily, for instance). They work well together.

BTW The BRAVE browser has built in tracking prevention without requiring extension overhead. Works better by default in my experience than either of the two mentioned in the post. YMMV though.
