This isn't a good idea.
I use noscript and I rarely will let it load 3rd-party Javascript. The more times I have to click "temporarily allow ..." the more i hate your site. As a user, I don't like every site telling Google what I'm doing. Google is becoming the panopticon of the internet. Forcing users to load content third-party content is a sign that you don't respect their privacy.
IE8 in private browsing mode will block 3rd-party scripts that are referenced from more than 10 (by default) sites. This includes all this Google stuff and Google Analytics.
- tdupree 18y agoAs we serve local, county, and state governments using a subscription model, we don't run into the problem of random visitors with noscript enabled when viewing the site, but I can see how that would affect other sites. As a side note, you can tie the CDN you create with Google App Engine to a domain, i.e. cdn.yoursite.com grabs from the App engine CDN.
- axod 18y agoI think you're a statistical anomaly.
- IsaacSchlueter 18y agoHow many users have even heard of NoScript or know what "3rd-party Javascript" is? They just care that your page works and loads fast. You are a vanishingly small minority.
