Hardly anything Ghostery does. The rules are defined by Google and the wording is unfortunate but largely correct: any extension that needs access to tabs, content scripts, and requests/responses will get the same message. So, basically, any extensions for content blocking will ask for these including Adblock/ABP+, Script no, whatever.
