Firefox add-on to track the trackers? (feddit.de)

Is there any plugin that reports on or visualizes tracking cookies and the services that deploy them? I'm thinking about an educational tool.

I've always enjoyed the cover flow of trackers that the duckduckgo extension shows

DDG is the shit, but it can break some website so i won't recommend this to the general public.

Possibly this or this ?

Thanks. Both go exactly in the direction i was thinking. Both appear to look at network traffic, connections to third-party servers.

I will say, lightbeam, at some point, will more or less not work. Especially if you did probably over 200 websites and let it connect everything together. But it is a more pretty and easier way to understand tool.
