Untrusted If Third Party -- Feature Request

A lot of sites show up as a third party (e.g., Facebook). I don't trust these sites as third parties, but if I Untrust the site I am prevented from even visiting the site as a first party. An obvious solution would be to have a setting that allows user to mark site as "Untrusted If Third Party."

One of my primary goals in utilizing the Untrusted setting is to gain some control over the huge list that the NoScript icon can produce on some sites. Eliminating sites from the list (e.g., by Untrusting them) makes the list much more manageable and allows me to find the individual site/s I might need to occasionally Temporarily allow.

If the "Untrusted If Third Party" feature is doable and would meet the goals I've stated, I'd like to request its consideration. Thanks.

Interesting idea. Implementing it is up to Giorgio, of course.

As an alternative, for the (presumably few) sites that you want to trust only as first parties, you could permanently allow them, but then use ABE to prevent them from being loaded as third parties, eg:

Code: Select all

Site .facebook.com .twitter.com .google.com
Accept from SELF++
Deny INC
