No I don’t think so, or they lie.
« Instead of keeping lists of what to block, Privacy Badger automatically discovers trackers based on their behavior »

I was unaware of that change, even their website still promote heuristics.
That being said, it’s not the same list as uBlock origin so you might have trackers going through ublock origin blocked by privacy badger or the opposite.
My point is, why not use both ?

Because it makes your fingerprint more unique

uBlock filters already covers everything privacy badger blocks. It’s better to have less extensions then more. More code that can cause security issues, which is why local learning was disabled in the first place.

That used to be the default behaviour, now it’s disabled but you can still enable this feature in its settings.
