Comment on Adult sites are stashing exploit code inside svg filesparent

Comments

I don't block javascript for security reasons, I block it for performance, privacy, and UX reasons. If there's a 0day that can be exploited by random javascript in the browser, UBlock won't save us.

if you value your time at all I suspect any benefits is going to be eaten by you having to constantly whitelist sites.

I don't constantly whitelist sites, only the ones I use regularly (like my email provider). Temporarily enabling JS on a broken site doesn't add it to my whitelist and only takes three clicks (which is muscle memory at this point):

1. Click to open UBlock window 2. Click to allow javascript temporarily 3. Click to refresh the page
