I would prefer to see the status of Ghostery in the icon of the Navigation Toolbar of Firefox;
perhaps an other colour of the icon when Ghostery is deactivated. (I don't use the statusbar of firefox!)
Thank You

Hi Hannes, thanks for using Ghostery.

Its a good idea, so we'll consider toggling the color when trackers are not found.

Hello and thank You, Pooch,

But this is not my wish.
The Ghostery - icon in the navigation - bar of Firefox shows already none or the number of found trackers.

My wish is to see if Ghostery is perhaps "not active" /// in status "pause blocking".
This could be to change the color of the icon perhaps in "red" when the program is in status "pause blocking" - Or You show at the left side of the icon none or the number of found trackers, at the right side of the icon none or the number of blocked trackers.

Thanks a lot, Hannes

This is what Adblock does, for example.

  Hi Hannes, thanks for clarifying.
  
  We usually shy away from applying colors to reflect status changes, tho an additional badge might be an interesting thing to try. Also, Ghostery is always on, so you are actually implying the color of the status would reflect the current setting for active blocking, this is also a bit error prone: a user mighty be blocking some items and not others. So maybe just an additional badge when its paused. I'll play around with it.

  How about: if all blocking is paused - Ghostery's icon goes grey.
