- aeosynth 11y agoI thought it was standard to open up an incognito window with everything disabled when debugging.
- brazzledazzle 11y agoI thought it was standard to assume everything I do is standard.
- chris_wot 11y agoYeah, that's non-standard behaviour.
- userbinator 11y agoI would not recommend this as a default choice if you want to benefit from the security aspect of adblocking, as otherwise you might become too easily deceived into turning it off - along the same lines as those fake error message ads. Since I have JavaScript disabled by default, I encounter plenty of such messages; but almost all of them I can safely ignore. It wouldn't surprise me if there are messages to the effect of "This site is not compatible with adblock, turn off your adblocker for a better experence" - and upon acting on such a message, the poor luser gets bombarded with all manner of popups and other crap. Incidentally, that's a similar experience to when I first started browsing with disabled JavaScript, and made me become much more wary of turning it on just because some site wants me to.
- Exuma 11y agoI'm referring to debugging my own stuff, not using other people's sites.
