Do blocked domain operators know your IP requested script?

If I visit x.com, which tries to load a script from example.com, and I'm blocking all scripts, will the operators of example.com know that I visited x.com? (Because, for example, I downloaded a script from example.com but didn't execute it.) Suppose that x.com does not send example.com's operators a list of all site visitors.

If x.com tries to looad scripts from example.com and those scripts are blocked by NoScript, then example.com won't see anything.

However, if it loads also images from example.com, then example.com may see x.com as the referrer of the image load. If you want to avoid that, you can use RefControl, like I do.
