Reviews for NoScript Security Suite
NoScript Security Suite by Giorgio Maone
Review by joborun
Rated 5 out of 5
by joborun, a year agoI've been using this at ALL TIMES for the past 12y? and I just can't think of browsing without it.
In many cases when "content" is presented as blackmail exchange for enabling scripts I just pass on the deal and seek content free of dangerous scripts.
Libre-js in theory sounds good, but in practice .. it is not feasible to manage, or worthy of trust. Mega-Corps can produce libre-open-free-code and scripts, and still be problematic, as many naive people perceive what they offer as FOSS as "a good thing", and they have no interest in ever wasting a penny to produce "a good thing", unless they are selling it.
Although I DO MISS the old 5.1.. wui I got used to this over the years, but hands down I'd still prefer it over this menu.
Luckily most serious FOSS projects and like minded web-designers produce clean easy to read content without scripts.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12962545, a month agoFor me it mucked up Firefox, giving me "Enable Firefox" (already enabled) and forcing Firefox to ask for permission to open each site. I mention this to give the head's up. BUT as someone wiser said, it's "an awesome addon, [but] you have to be extremely careful with it. It can really mess up your web experience if you don't know how to use it."

- Rated 4 out of 5by chxrlotte_xo, 2 months agoIt works well... TOO well. It does a great job at blocking all the stuff it needs to, but compared to other extensions like uBlock, it causes almost every site to break - I have to constantly go in and set a load of stuff to trusted just for even basic site functionality to work. It's an eye-opener; you really get to see what random stuff every site is trying to ping off about you, but at the same time, everything breaks. For this reason it's just become an annoyance to me and I've gone back to uBlock.
