Can anyone else confirm this? Personally, I've always used AdBlock, but never used a Javascript blocker because it is substantially more effort and I am lazy. I do use Disconnect, though, to block that certain flavor of JS.
- r0h1n 13y agoI use Adblock, NoScript and Disconnect. Been using the former two in conjunction for years.
- npsimons 13y agoThe first two things I install on any fresh browser is NoScript and AdBlock. I then make a point of permanently blocking JS from any domain looking like it might be used only for ads. I'll selectively turn on JS for one (very constrained!) domain at a time if I need to do something (like login to purchase or comment), but if I'm just browsing and a site no-worky-without-js? Tab closed, no second thoughts. There's a certain blogging platform site (can't remember what it's called) that gets linked here a lot that doesn't work with JS off; I've never read anything posted there.

- dkersten 13y agoI use adblock and Ghostery. Partly because I'm tired of ads but mostly because I'm tired of sites connecting to ten external services making pages load slower and sending my details to third parties without my consent.
