GNU LibreJS Alternatives
GNU LibreJS is described as 'free add-on for GNU IceCat and other Mozilla-based browsers. It blocks nonfree nontrivial JavaScript while allowing JavaScript that is free and/or trivial' and is an app in the web browsers category. There are more than 10 alternatives to GNU LibreJS for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Firefox and Google Chrome. The best alternative is uMatrix, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like GNU LibreJS are NoScript, RequestPolicy, ScriptSafe and 3P Request Blocker.
