OP here: According to German newspaper Zeit, privacy-enhanced browser Cliqz [1] just acquired Ghostery for an undisclosed amount. With the deal, Cliqz wants to enhance its browser&#x27;s anti-tracking capabilities. It also aims to enlarge its footprint of ~150.000 users and tap into Ghostery&#x27;s 50m user count. The Ghostery team spinned of its business segment into Evidon, which is not part of the deal.<p>Disclaimer: I&#x27;m not affiliated to Ghostery or Cliqz (didn&#x27;t know about the latter until just now).<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cliqz.com&#x2F;us&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cliqz.com&#x2F;us&#x2F;</a><p>EDIT: Added link to Cliqz-US URL
