I don't buy the "the rise of ad-blockers led to the rise of (whatever bad thing is being discussed)" theories. They are almost always false.
Ad-blocking didn't cause pop-ups and interstitials. Those things predated ad-blockers, and were caused by the abysmally low response rates (click-through) of online ads.
Ad-blocking didn't cause the ads that expand to cover the content of a page or the dashed green underlines within a page's text that pop up small ads when you mouseover them. They are merely a continuation of the trend that started with pop-ups.
Ad-blocking didn't cause tracking. Tracking was caused by the idea that "making ads relevant" would improve click-through rates. It happened independently of ad-blocking.
Now, ad-blocking supposedly caused the rise of surreptitious #JavaScript cryptocoin miners? Does that also explain the existenence of mobile (and desktop) software that contains hidden cryptocurrency miners? Because the two are likely closely related. -

@shpuld Maybe they changed the way #JavaSludge ( #JavaScript ) works. -

I hope that this nasty #Cryptocurrency mining #Javascript trend at least serves to educate more people on why #NoScript is important. -

#JavaScript API design question.
should it be
drawRect (svgEle :SVGElement, φposition ... )
or
drawRect ( φposition ... )
that is, without the “svg ele to attached to”, as 1st arg.
See pic. -

Users shouldn't be forced to use nonfree software when interacting with their own government. Every user has the right to control their own computing, and the government shouldn't be forcing you to download and install proprietary software just to take advantage of its services. But when it comes to registering as an agent under the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA) in the United States, that's exactly what the government expects you to do.

@tregeagle What I enjoy is websites where the [nag|registration|pay]wall depends on #JavaScript. For a few months, before somebody noticed, you could read as much of the New York Times as you wanted. Which generally isn't much, but it's the principle that counts. #NoScript -

You need a proxy that strips out #Javascript, ads, and other bad stuff before it hits your last-mile connection. Maybe #selfhost a #PiHole from home then connect to it from the hotel? -

This is what happens when I land in a website for the first time.
1. Stare at why it isn't loading or partially loaded
2. Ask noscript to enable the scripts from the main site
3. Stare at why it is still not loading
4. Ask noscript to load script from CDNs
5. If comments section (news websites) does not load, ask noscript to enable the appropriate third party site that serves them.
6. If everything fine, read the article. Else, goto step 3.
I assume this would filter out trackers.

@jim Too much #JavaScript. Loading a page via #hotel_wifi can take >2 minutes. During that time, you can do nothing else on your phone. -
