Is NS still conflicting with Adblock?

Post by Mr.Gump »

I read an article that said NS is disabling some features of Adblock so that NS adds are not blocked. Is this still going on? Is NS changing any FireFox or addons at all?

No, that was resolved a couple of years ago. NoScript is not changing any of the other Firefox add-ons. Of course it does modify Firefox--like all addons do--but not in any sneaky or unexpected way. If I recall correctly, some of the ads on the NoScript site aren't blocked by Adblock Plus, but that's because of the way the NoScript site is constructed, not because of anything going on in NoScript itself.

If you care to, would you provide a link to the article you're referencing? It may be just very outdated information.

It was NEVER "conflicting" with it or anything else. It was something that was blown out of proportion and frankly mishandled and pathetic. A professional would have asked first then struck, not shoot first and ask questions later. There was a lot assumptions and we know what does, makes an "ass" out of "u" and "me" when done.
