NoScript Alternatives

NoScript is described as 'The NoScript Firefox extension provides extra protection for Firefox, Seamonkey and other mozilla-based browsers: this free, open source add-on allows JavaScript, Java, Flash and other plugins to be executed only by trusted web sites of your choice (e.g. your online bank)' and is a very popular Ad Blocker in the web browsers category. There are more than 10 alternatives to NoScript for a variety of platforms, including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Mac, Windows and Linux apps.

    Allows quick enable and disable of Javascript, Cookies, Image Animations, Flash, Silverlight, Images, Stylesheets and Proxy from the Toolbar. This is great for increasing security or decreasing bandwidth. (Read details for info on Java with FF52+!).

    This was posted over reddit a few months ago, Apparently Ad Blockers are not allowed on Youtube. Is this a new thing they've implemented? and judging by all the recent comments and posts all over r/youtube, this change was just rolled out on a larger scale.

    It functions as an HTTP proxy like Fiddler. You could filter JS with it, but it gives such fine-grained control that this would be tedious.
