Ad/Tracking blockers
We use Intercom as our communication platform for questions, bug reporting, and feature requests. However, some customers report they are not able to access Intercom.
Ad-blocking plugins offer options to block JavaScript that includes tracking functionality. While Intercom is not an ad-provider, Intercom is often recognized as a tracking tool by most browsers.
Steps to try:
If your privacy controls let you manually change which connections are allowed, allow Segment and intercom.io.
Using a different browser to access the Intercom chat.
Temporarily disabling your ad-blocker.
Note: Firefox browsers have tracking protection enabled by default. Refer here to learn more on managing content blocking for Firefox browsers.
Intercom also has a nice guide on how to address this issue here.
