subscriber base. Yeah, it’s a big deal.
They can mess with your searches and passwords, too. What I have noticed now is that on purpose they hide a bunch of other scripts behind that first few. So if you allow even just the java script to make buttons work or images show all of a sudden you get 75 other scripts dumped on you. It is dirty pool. I don’t mind the ads if they are trying to make a buck, but all the 3rd and 4th party tracking scripts and crosssite threats are a problem. I hit a page in the UK last week that had almost a hundred after I toggled on JS.
They absolutely have a treasure trove of tricks up their sleeves. I highly recommend NoScript to everyone. It takes a mild learning curve to figure out what scripts control what. But it blocks evry script on the page and lets you selectively and individually toggle on only the very minimal needed to make the page work yet still block the other 75. Other script blockers require you to allow everything or nothing as the only two options. In these times it was worth the time invested and priceless to me now. Firefox and Chrome have it available as an addon. Or it can be downloaded here.
