I've been trying this every few years since browsers started supporting JavaScript and allowing users to disable it (back in the days before extensions and config options), and every time more and more of the web breaks w/o JSscript. 100% of the websites I need for work use JScript.
- kevin_thibedeau 6y agoMost sites are still usable if you cherry pick a subset of the JS they invoke. Blocked trackers like Google analytics or tag manager rarely break things.
- SoSoRoCoCo 6y agoExcept for sites that I use (internal websites for several vendors), and that is just to manipulate widgets, editors, and forms, and in one case, operate remote machinery. What methods for cherry picking do you like? I've only done all or nothing.
- kevin_thibedeau 6y agoI use NoScript to whitelist a minimal set of what needs to be there. I won't ever allow analytics or doubleclick scripts. When I pop into a media site with 20+ third party scripts I just say nope and spend my time somewhere else. For basket case sites needed for work or e-commerce that are too fubared to work with script blocking I have a clean Chrome browser. None of those sites get to have tracking cookies from my main browser instance.
