It’s up to you whether you trust Wise Ghost. But they have similarities to browser hijackers, such as redirecting searches through a third-party site. The Wise Ghost extensions, Total Security for Chrome™ and Total Privacy for Chrome™, offer to help users stay safe online. There are ads for Total Privacy for Chrome™ online, and ads cost money to display. This doesn’t mean that Wise Ghost is dangerous, but it’s a little suspicious. It’s likely that the operators of the Wise Ghost extensions are making money from the extensions. Not knowing who the developers are makes it difficult to trust the extensions. It’s unclear who made this extension, as there are no contacts on other than a single email address. Sites like Google let you see and control what data is collected about you, as well as delete the data that has already been collected. Your search history should be between you and your search engine. Wise Ghost’s privacy policy does not make it clear whether it logs people’s search queries, but it could do that, so keep it in mind. With Wise Ghost, no matter which engine you choose, your query always goes through. This works provided no add-on has taken over your search engine (like Wise Ghost does). Still, if you want to occasionally search, for example, DuckDuckGo, you can already do it – just start your query with “” (you can give DuckDuckGo a shorter keyword, like “duck”). That’s a smaller selection than the unlimited search engines that web browsers give us by default, but it’s something. The Wise Ghost extensions let you choose one of four search engines: Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Bing, and Google. They send queries to DuckDuckGo in Ghost mode – the mode that’s supposed to make your browsing more secure. The Wise Ghost extensions forward search queries to Yahoo by default. In this, Wise Ghost add-ons are similar to the Online Privacy extension. When you search the web, you might notice appear in your address bar briefly. Wise Ghost add-ons take over your defaults search engine and replace it with. Problems with Wise Ghost extensions It takes over your search engine If you have a Wise Ghost extension (Total Security for Chrome™, Total Privacy for Chrome™, or others) installed, should you be concerned? Browser hijackers are extensions that force your browser to open ads, redirect searches, track your data, or do something else that’s potentially harmful. I noticed that some cybersecurity blogs have written about the Wise Ghost extensions, calling them “browser hijackers”. If you have a Wise Ghost extension installed on your browser, then you might notice the address “” in your address bar whenever you search for something online. Wise Ghost is a product behind Total Security for Chrome™, Total Privacy for Chrome™, and possibly some other extensions. What is Wise Ghost/Total Security for Chrome™?
