With the recent update to Firefox 59.0, the page accounts.google.com now renders differently with scripting disabled in NoScript. It now renders the same as if scripting is allowed, whereas with Firefox <= 58.0.2 it looks the same as with javascript disabled.
To see this, first clear cache and cookies. Then disable javascript from about:config by setting javascript.enabled to false (be warned that this will disable javascript in all open tabs). Navigate to accounts.google.com and observe the page. This should look as the page rendered prior to Firefox 59.0 with NoScript not allowing any scripts.
Now, clear cache and cookies, and set javascript.enabled to true with about:config. In NoScript, disallow scripts for google.com, gstatic.com, etc. Navigate to accounts.google.com, and the page will render differently, the same as it does if scripting is enabled.
Why is there a difference in the way accounts.google.com is rendered with javascript.enabled = false vs. rendered with scripts not allowed in NoScript?
