Can you provide a bit of detail on how you block them?
- vanderZwan 8y agoUhm, well, its just the basic way one would use uMatrix so nothing special. It's an add-on that works by whitelisting instead of blacklisting, similar to NoScript. In this case I had it set up to allow all subdomains of google, so I opened the panel and clicked to blacklist the subdomain that I didn't want. EDIT: The only downside of this is that if I want to use Google Hangouts in the same browser, it is now blocked, so I have to manually unblock it. But I use Firefox as my main browser, yet reserve hangouts to Chromium anyway. https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/wiki https://github.com/gorhill/uMatrix/wiki
- steeef 8y agoI use uBlock Origin in advanced mode, which lets you do something similar. Haven't used it extensively, but blocking the following domains sped things up a little: - hangouts.google.com - plus.google.com - play.google.com
