If *only* safer browsing didn't have to venture into tinfoil hat territory... But the moment you start shutting off the hazardous parts of browsing, which are numerous, most websites fail to work, or fail to work well. Yes, I'll go as far as saying *most* websites. Just about every site I look at, doesn't work (at all, or usefully) without scripting. And usually it's not just scripting from the site, but it's scripting from half a dozen or more different services, some of which will chainload more crap from yet another set of services. Even if security wasn't the concern for denying scripts, it becomes almost necessary to deny scripts so that my PC doesn't bog down from all the scripting from one page, never mind trying to open multiple tabs. Can't read the on-line tv guide, or read the news. It's just ordinary stuff, not websites about doing dodgy things. Even simple things are ruined by this recursive-scripting crap that designers go through. Go to a musician's website, he offers some free samples to listen to, but they're not on his site, where you could simply download/listen to a MP3/Ogg/whatever, it's a link to soundcloud, dropbox, or any one of a number of bulk file handling sites that require you to allow a plethora of scripts to run. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.
