Doesn't a user that has Ghostery/NoScript render this completely useless?

Doesn't a user that has Ghostery/NoScript render this completely useless?
- quackerhacker 13y agoNot sure how you would figure that...my take on Sift is that they utilize pattern recognition to determine risk level of a transaction for the seller. Basically, the goal is thwart fraudulent transactions before they get to delivery status. EDIT: I just checked out what you mean, since Sift utilizes Javascript code for their api call to determine risk, I agree with you...it would render their pattern check ineffective for the Javascript api integration...they need to run server side code, which Sift offers in their REST API.
- lightcatcher 13y agoFormer Sift intern here. Sift Science also has both Javascript and server side APIs. See https://siftscience.com/docs/rest-api https://siftscience.com/docs/rest-api for info on the REST API. This allows companies to send all relevant transaction and behavioral data to Sift even for users who don't execute Javascript.
