Brave
Using NoScript for fun, just to see how ridiculous effective the Brave shields are (for add blocking and limiting third-party exposure)

[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 107474, post: 1083091"] Hi, What I like about brave is the option to increase the adblocking and tracking protection per domain. I normally run Brave with shield in Standard mode and increase it to Aggressive on selected websites. The only thing missing in Brave is an overview of what is allowed and blocked. I added NoScript so I can see which (sub) domains are not blocked. By reducing what is blocked by default in NoScript, NoScript serves as on-demand reporter for Brave's effectiveness in limiting 3p-exposure. Brave only mentions the number of blocks (14 on CNN), but with NoScript running with more generous default setting, I can see what passes the Brave Shields. Most websites only show the bare minimum (below right). [ATTACH type="full" alt="1713095833167.png"]282820[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
