Welcome to NoScript!

Site Classification Behavior

Please select the way NoScript behaves when encountering unclassified sites. You can revisit this choice from the NoScript Options page and whenever you reset NoScript.

- STRICT / Default Deny

The traditional and most secure NoScript behavior: unclassified sites, marked as "DEFAULT", are NOT considered trusted. Potentially harmful capabilities, including scripts, are disabled. You can manually enable the sites you trust by opening the NoScript interface and marking them as "TRUSTED", or further customize their capabilities by selecting "CUSTOM". Cross-site protections are always enforced.

- EASIER / Auto

A compromise between security and convenience: the top level site, whose address is shown in the navigation bar, is automatically promoted to "Temporarily TRUSTED" unless already manually classified. 3d party sites still need to be classified manually. Cross-site protections are always enforced.

- EASIEST / Default allow

The most relaxed behavior: unclassified top-level sites are promoted to "Temporarily TRUSTED", and capabilities enabled for the top-level site are automatically cascaded to all its 3rd party unclassified sub-resources. Sites already classified as "UNTRUSTED" and "CUSTOM" are not affected. Cross-site protections are always enforced.

Enjoyed my discussion with PM Netanyahu on how AI education and literacy will keep our free societies ahead.
We spoke about AI empowering everyone to build software and the importance of ensuring it serves quality and progress.
Optimistic for peace, safety, and greatness for Israel and its neighbors.

You will be working alongside the most elite engineers of your career.
Books will be written about this team.
This app will be regarded with more reverence than the moon landing
The code will change history more than the invention of the wheel.
Come rebuild the 𝕏 Android app.

"NoScript is the smartest add-on any end user can have. It takes control over your browser back for you from advertisers and and anyone else. Stopping them from showing you things you don't want to see. Say goodbye to everything you've been forced to look at when surfing the net. NoScript puts you are in control of what you see, hear, and allow into your computer.
And NoScript developed by Giorgio Maone. is the original script blocker all others are based on."
