It's a great extension for ONE COMPUTER alone. But if you have 2 or more computers that you use, then it creates a mess! It doesn't copy the previous settings to the "new" computer (a computer that I turn on later than the previously used one), and it resets the trusted/untrusted settings back to default on all computers! It's very very annoying. Especially when dealing with payment processors and websites that highly rely on JS.

A clearer example of the problem: I haven't used my laptop for a few months, I only use my desktop PC on a daily basis, I have tweaked the trusted/untrusted settings as I need. Then I turn my laptop on, after which my NoScript settings on my main PC also go back to default, previous tweaking was all wasted effort! Instead, it should update the laptop's NoScript settings, not the other way around, and definitely not by defaulting/resetting all!

I've been using this extension for years. There are so many third party scripts that are completely unnecessary for the functioning of most websites that I browse. This extension allows me to control whose code runs on my computer. Try it out!

Amazing for expert users
An absolute hell for a noob like me, made basically every site break
I can see the appeal and it’s an amazing too but definetly not for me lmao

There are various add-ons that do affect security and privacy in a positive way, but I think this is the gold standard. Granted, it's intensive upon the user to allow and not allow exactly what they want to run which can frustrate the average user. But for anyone security-minded that is willing to put in the work, this is the best option you can have.

STILL there are no lists for subscription like ad ablock extension?

why?

NoScript is a great customizable addon to allow\block the scripts you want for each website. It's quite useful when browsing random unsafe ones or to stop annoying ads.

Maybe an issue is that you don't always know what's good and what's not and have to fiddle with the permissions for each first access. Also, it can be a pain when switching sites during payments, until set up properly.

IMO it should come with basic important rules for the most common\important sites\services.

Lately, however, I'm getting again the old bug that keeps tabs stuck in loading until I disable\re-enable the addon. I hope it will be fixed.

It is cool
