Privacy Pros:<\/strong> Blocks javascript on a per-website basis preventing malicious code from running as well as preventing cross-site scripting attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Privacy Cons:<\/strong> Can become tedious to manually whitelist every site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Privacy Tip:<\/strong> Get into the habit of whitelisting and blacklisting sites via the addon menu.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The NoScript Security Suite<\/strong> is Free Open Source Software (FOSS) providing extra protection for Firefox<\/a> (on Android, too!), Chrome<\/a>, Edge, Brave and other web browsers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NoScript is a built-in key security component of the Tor Browser<\/strong>, the top anonymity tool defending millions against surveillance and censorship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This browser extension allows JavaScript and other potentially harmful content<\/strong> to be executed only by trusted web sites of your choice<\/strong> (e.g. your online bank).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NoScript also provides the most powerful anti-XSS protection<\/strong> ever available in a browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NoScript’s unique pre-emptive script blocking<\/strong> approach prevents exploitation of security vulnerabilities (known, such as Meltdown or Spectre, and even not known yet!) with no functionality loss<\/strong>: you can enable JavaScript and other dynamic capabilities for sites you trust<\/strong> with a simple click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Staying safe<\/strong> has never been so easy<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts* will agree: the web is really safer with NoScript!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

* experts endorsing NoScript, among others: Edward Snowden<\/strong> (former NSA analyst and whistleblower against surveillance state); Window Snyder<\/strong> (former top security officer at Microsoft, Square, Inc., Apple, Fastly, Intel and Mozilla Corp.); Douglas Crockford<\/strong> (Javascript expert and creator of the JSON format); the Sans Internet Storm Center<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
