Comment Block scripts, not ads. (Score 1) 253
I am far more impressed by an ability to whitelist sites for scripting (i.e. block any scripts from unapproved sources) than I am by simply blocking ads. At the moment, I'm using a combination of Firefox and the 'NoScript' extension, and no ad-blocker of any kind. Nonetheless, I see very few ads, although I do see any that are loaded by the site I'm visiting - but since they rarely have javascript from an allowed site, they are static, and cannot 'fingerprint' my devices.
Compared to anything that allows anyone and everyone to run javascript on my machines, most sites are at least 3 times faster (both in loading, and in any actions on that site), and consume far less memory.
