Reviews for NoScript Security Suite
NoScript Security Suite by Giorgio Maone
Review by Firefox user 13372577
Rated 2 out of 5
by Firefox user 13372577, 8 years agoIt does work (more or less) so I cannot justify a 1-star rating. But like others have said, this is not the NoScript we knew and loved. And while I know there is a temptation to just blame Firefox57 for old addons no longer working well, the truth is that we cannot blame Firefox57 for the dreadful new interface that NoScript has, nor for the buggy way it works (forgetting your settings, for example).
I don't want to be overly harsh here. For many years this developer has given us a fantastic product that millions of us found "essential". For that he must be commended. However, the new NoScript no longer has a place in my little "arsenal of defence". I've moved on.
If anyone is interested in alternatives, I find uBlock Origin is enough for my needs, provided the "I'm an advanced user" option is checked off and third party scripts / frames are globally blocked ("medium blocking mode", as per the author). If you want more power, there is uMatrix - still not a 100% replacement for NoScript but good enough for the vast majority of people.

- Rated 5 out of 5by 镂心鉥肝, a month agoNoScript还是很好的,不管是界面还是解释如何使用都进行了改进。不过,文章内容应该更加简洁一点。告诉用户每一个功能开关的意思。同时NoScript默认会阻止扩展脚本

- Rated 1 out of 5by Max, a month agoI really wanted to use NoScript. I prefer single-purpose extensions that focus on doing one job well, compared to more multi-purpose extensions like uBlock Origin.
However, I ultimately couldn't stick with it because the user experience did not suit my needs.
E.g. one mobile screen presents around 12 different icons packed into the height of 3 lines of text, leaving a large portion of the screen completely empty below them.
My main frustration is that none of these icons have labels. Expecting users to learn and memorize the meaning of a dozen different unlabeled symbols creates an unnecessary barrier to entry and makes using the extension quickly and efficiently very difficult. It feels counter-intuitive to leave so much screen real estate blank when that space could be used to label each icon and explain its function.
uBlock Origin is easier to use than NoScript. - Rated 5 out of 5by LittleFire, a month ago
