Hi! I'm a noob, excuse me if I say something stupid.

I'm using a website that is very slow. I think one of the reasons of this that the site uses a lot of unnecessary javascript. I thought I can use ABE to allow only the minimum necessary JS, so maybe it would be faster. I tried to set an ABE rule like this:

Site .facebook.com .twitter.com
Deny INC from .facebook.com .twitter.com
.example.com
Accept

When I applied the rule and loaded example.com, I noticed three things:
1. Some addresses don't show up in noscript when I load the page(the intended effect)
2. Some addresses do show up despite the rule(such as twitter.com)
3. Facebook.com isn't loading properly(so the rule was not restricted to example.com)

What rule should I set?
Thank you for your help in advance.

Emulating NoScript's active content blocking using ABE is tricky: Can you just use the regular script blocking on this site?

The website still needs the javascript from example.com to function at all. Simply blocking the scripts from other sites work, but with that, I won't be able to use some other websites.

Your initial ABE rule doesn't look right...see if this helps:

Ah, you're trying to make per-site permissions but like the reverse of what people usually ask. This ABE rule should do:

Code: Select all

Site .example.com
Accept from SELF++
Deny INC

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to have any effect.
