NoScript Security Suite by Giorgio Maone

Rated 3 out of 5
by Firefox user 18736741, 7 months agoI think it works well, and I do recommend getting it. Pages load faster, since they don't load much of the bloat and spam, this also helps with security, preventing a lot of code from executing without consent.
It does take a bit of time to customize for all of the sites that are regularly visited. Often time sites load a lot of items, which must be explicitly allowed, then often times when something is allowed, it opens up a lot more items that must also be allowed. Scripts have to be customized for each domain (not each site) to be allowed to run. Which leads me to my next point, and the reason I gave 3 stars instead of 5...
I have spent quite a lot of time getting all of the scripts I like setup, the individual sites and domains configured exactly like I like it. Then something really bad went wrong. On a completely different PC, I logged into my Firefox browser with my Firefox account, and it loaded all of my plugins, and those plugins all reset to their initial default value, not only on the new PC I logged in on, but it reset all of my noscript configuration on my main PC that I've been using for years!!! So much time configuring it exactly like I like it, all gone. It's really quite sad.
Overall, I still recommend getting it, but having lost all of my settings like that is really upsetting. I guess if I would have known this would happen ahead of time, maybe I could have backed up my settings or something, but I had no idea logging into Firefox on a completely different PC would erase all of my noscript settings on my original PC.

- Rated 5 out of 5by 确悫恪刻, 2 months agoNoScript还是很好的,不管是界面还是解释如何使用都进行了改进。不过,文章内容应该更加简洁一点。告诉用户每一个功能开关的意思。同时NoScript默认会阻止扩展脚本

- Rated 1 out of 5by Max, 2 months agoI really wanted to use NoScript. I prefer single-purpose extensions that focus on doing one job well, compared to more multi-purpose extensions like uBlock Origin.
However, I ultimately couldn't stick with it because the user experience did not suit my needs.
E.g. one mobile screen presents around 12 different icons packed into the height of 3 lines of text, leaving a large portion of the screen completely empty below them.
My main frustration is that none of these icons have labels. Expecting users to learn and memorize the meaning of a dozen different unlabeled symbols creates an unnecessary barrier to entry and makes using the extension quickly and efficiently very difficult. It feels counter-intuitive to leave so much screen real estate blank when that space could be used to label each icon and explain its function.
uBlock Origin is easier to use than NoScript. - Rated 5 out of 5by LittleFire, 2 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by thofree, 2 months agoGets detected by Youtube's anti ad-block stuff. Wish you had a button to turn it off easily for a website without disabling it entirely.
