If this doesn't get implemented into browsers as a default option or usage of extension doesn't get popular people using this are going to be easy to identify. It's like someone using just normal http and suddenly using https and Tor. You are going to stick out.


I wonder how popular are NoScript/AdBlock percentage wise these days?


I tried NoScript for a bit. Obviously most social networks stopped working, but I liked how NYT became free again (since they track you by a cookie) and obviously HN remained solid. Essentially NoScript just means no online socializing, which I think I might grow to become ok with.


Don't forget that you can whitelist domains, or disable/enable them per session.


Yep, I actually just learned that a minute ago. Thanks for the tip. :)
