NoScript doesn't mess around, it is hardcore and paranoid. I run it with the non-recommended "Temporarily allow top-level sites by default"/"Base 2nd level Domains" option in order to ease the pain a little bit. Still, sometimes I can't figure out how to watch a video, or leave a comment, or some other interaction. But I will suffer the pain, for the web is a brutal, unforgiving no-man's land. I think NoScript has saved me from some spear-phishing attacks. I hope. You just can't let strangers run code on your machine, no matter the sandbox. It's the reality that we live in.

- WickyNilliams 13y agoIt's a damn shame that it's not available for Chrome. There are various rip offs, with confusingly similar names, but the real deal is not available. Last I checked Chrome doesn't have sufficient hooks to block scripts early enough
