Great, I just commented that line in rotating_tweets.js (and inserted some spaces as Ghostery simply scans the whole source code and counts commented urls as trackers). Ghostery now shows no trackers and the Rotating Tweets plugin still seems to work so far.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Here is the explanation of the author of “WP DoNotTrack”, which may be helpful:

ok, found the reason; rotating tweets’ JS file (wp-content/plugins/rotatingtweets/js/rotating_tweet.js) has code in it that loads the twitter widgets script (no idea why). because the JS is loaded from within JS, it cannot be caught by wp dnt (yet).

Since I activated “Rotating Tweets”, the code is present throughout the site, even on pages without the widget (like https://planit.legal/kontakt/).

Thanks for having a look.

That would be great, thank you for the effort!

Btw just for other people seeking a solution: I tried to filter the twitter code with the “WP DoNotTrack” plugin, but without success.
