Doesn't Ghostery sell data to advertisers too?
We don't sell any data to 3rd parties. You can also see our source code here https://github.com/ghostery/ghostery-extension
They probably do.
Privacy Badger is a good alternative.
I use uBlock on safari but that's it. Can you recommend an alternative to Privacy Badger (or a trustworthy implementation[0]) that works on Safari? HTTPS everywhere and PB are not supported.

[0] Some company called softtonic has a "Privacy Badger" branded extension but I am skeptical about downloading from an unofficial source.

DuckDuckGo’s extension maybe? https://spreadprivacy.com/privacy-simplified/
uMatrix is uBlock for all the things. Or, enable advanced / expert mode in uBlock and use the "traffic light" system to configure blocks to specific domains as encountered.
