So it sounds like your real goal is privacy, then. Perfectly legitimate, but you would be better off with a specifically privacy-oriented tool. Adblock Plus is quite popular, or uBlock, or if you really want full control, you could opt for RequestPolicy or uMatrix. There are lots of others, too, with varying strengths and weaknesses.

I already use the following tools: AdBlock Plus, Canvas Blocker, Cookie Monster, Ghostery, HTTPS-Everywhere, NoScript, RefControl, RequestPolicy Continued, Scriptish, Shim Storage, UAControl and User-Agent JS Fixer. If you've got any other suggestions, I'm all ears.

Looks fine to me.

I would suggest you look into Random Agent Spoofer for UA modification, and replace Ghostery with anti-tracking ABP subscriptions and µMatrix.


** EDIT

I should also mention that ABP is not reliable at blocking requests, and the devs have said they won't fix it - so ABP can't be depended on for much use beyond annoyance removal. That's part of the reason why I'm suggesting µMatrix.

Another addon you maybe interested in is Policeman, but I recommend you read through viewtopic.php?f=19&t=20189 before using it.

You might also consider to look into ublock, though I have never used it myself...
