In this context, a script is a program than runs inside your browser.

Noscript is basically best-of-breed sorry for browser security but it's as hard as hell to use for anyone who isn't already pretty good at this kind of thing. It also breaks some things almost completely, especially shopping cart based sites and things like "verified by visa" and other pass-throughs.

Disabling Javascript even selectively is a losing battle and was more trouble than it was worth ten years ago. You'd be better off running two browsers or even two OS installs, and having one browser forget everywhere it's been and everything it's done every two hours or something.

NoScript is for neckbeard RMS types and I say that as someone who didn't find it difficult to use and kept it around for a few years a long time ago.

I tend to just use Brave now, with it's built in Shields Up ad-blocker, and can't be arsed with anything else.

I was using Ublock-origin on Firefox at one stage for maximum autism.

Say what? That's the most mainstream adblocker out there. There's zero autism involved if like most people you just install it and fuhgeddaboudit.

uBlock is for blocking ads; if you want to block scripts you need uMatrix.

I use NoScript and once you've been using it a few months and whitelisted everywhere you visit regularly it really isn't that much of a pain as it is usually described. Yes when you visit a new site you will need to whitelist a whole bunch of other sites but it helps you understand what's going on under the hood, and it's a small price to pay to never be hijacked again by either someone trying to install malware, or the 'you are an idiot ha ha ha' pop ups.

Oh that's what I meant, but when I was experimenting with Vivaldi after Firefox fucked up extensions for a weekend.
