By default, NS comes always the last: this was introduced years ago to allow ABP users to see stuff blocked later by NoScript among ABP's "Blockable objects".
This is controlled by the
noscript.cp.last about:config preference: if you turn it to false, content policy execution order will depend on component registration order, which isn't always obvious.
Thank you.
Confirming that I understand correctly: In the default configuration, I must TA or allow in
RequestPolicy requests to G-A, so that RP will allow this to get to where NS sees it, whereupon NS runs the surrogate. Correct?
And the Hosts blocking is irrelevant to the above, because the original request is internally processed through RP to NS, which runs the locally-stored surrogate, thus never triggering a (Hosts or DNS) lookup to G-A. Correct?
If I have that right, then I understand the need to allow G-A in RP. Many thanks.
