Why I've started using NoScript

#2 Post by labbe5 »

Finally, in that decade, third-party scripts for tracking and ads have become almost literally ubiquitous on the web. Just about every web site I visit, I've discovered, has at least a couple of third-party dependencies, whose provenance I don't trust, and which I'd rather not spend (even a minuscule proportion of) my energy bill on. Even disregarding the new hardware vulnerabilities, I don't think arbitrary third party trackers ought to be trusted to run in your browser[2]; if even one of the hundreds of tracking scripts is compromised, this could easily leak your passwords or other data to attackers.
