Why was TACO replaced with BEEFTACO? No way to tell if BEEFTACO does ANYTHING!

With TACO I could make certain tracking sites and apps were blocked. Not so with BEEFTACO. I truly believe ABINE OR the Firefox team made TACO incompatible with FF 25 for that exact reason. ABINE has made NO attempts at re-enabling TACO for our use.

Forgive me if I'm wrong. I'm perfect at it.

hello, try to use version 4.54 of the addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/targeted-advertising-cookie-op/versions/

and just a general hint - it's always the developer of an addon that is responsible to make necessary adjustments in the addon for new firefox versions. thank you...

Thanks Phillipp,

Next question, mostly rhetorical, why did I have to post this question to get the link to 4.54? Only one that shows in searching for TACO is 4.53.

Whatever, thanks again. Now you know why I chose the username ...  ;-)

hey, you're welcome! version 4.54 of the extension doesn't show up when you search for it, because it hasn't been properly reviewed by mozilla yet. once this happens it will show up and existing users of the addon will be automatically updated to the new version.
