@GeePawHill the fact that #ScammerPayback, #JimBrowning and all the other #ScamBaiters don't run out of content and nowadays find more and more aggressive #Scammers literally emptying peoples' bank accounts (or rather manipulating them into doing that) is worrying.

Disable JavaScript

Instructions on how to disable (deactivate) JavaScript in web browser and why.

Disable JavaScript
Ah yes, the old "blame your wallet woes on questionable morals" trick. Apparently, disabling JavaScript is the real path to fiscal responsibility💡. So, turn off those cookies and watch your bank account grow! 💸🚀

You're overspending because you lack values

Overconsumption is a spiritual problem, not a money problem. Lessons about desire from "Spirited Away".

I started disabling JavaScript on many sites that I visit. It's unbelievable how much better the experience is.

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/technology/youtube-tests-blocking-videos-unless-you-disable-ad-blockers/ Very bad idea, #youtube. The ads you run encourage people use malicious services, are very long, and disrupt the timing of the video. Creators can make money other ways besides through your platform. To remove the ad-block warnings, add a "#disableJavascript" extension. Also may help to use a #VPN or #VPL. Finally, my favorite... On mobile, use #ReVanced. ReVanced is ready to directly install on Android but can be sideloaded on iOS. Good luck!
YouTube tests blocking videos unless you disable ad blockers

YouTube is running an experiment asking some users to disable their ad blockers or pay for a premium subscription, or they will not be allowed to watch videos.

DEAR AUSTRALIAN USERS

Our #nationalBroadcaster's website in #Australia, the ABC, fetches images from #Akamai. This means that a USA-based corporation is able to track you as you access #news articles.

Even if you #disableJavascript, the #lazyLoading of images tells Akamai the page being read and how quickly!

- Use #TorBrowser in Safest mode, when accessing any news site,

- When using #ABCNewsAU site #disableImages, on 'about:config' page, set 'default.images' property from '1' to 2 (or 3).

They bought #StackOverflow for almost $2b dollars. If we think they will not try to monetise answers we may be mistaken.

Start saving pages from now.

@sheogorath @schaueho @aeveltstra From default to mandatory the step is short. Has anybody thought about how, for ex. a dictatorship, would turn this into a censorship weapon? Yes, many of them can already play with the net as they want, but this would be another brick in the wall. Mozilla is more and more looking like the big corporations, Imho. They will beginn with DoH, the others will follow like sheeps. Long life to #Dillo 🕺 #protecttheusers #disablejavascript
