RequestPolicy is pretty awesome. I've switched to Adblock Edge, which hopefully protects me better than Adblock Plus. Unfortunately, the more I delve into web privacy, the more I think that non-technical users are screwed. How on earth are mere mortals supposed to protect themselves when someone skilled in the art has a difficult time getting web sites to work in a privacy-maximal fashion?
