That is what is what I have been doing somewhat, disabling the program if I am in a hurry and then I might forget to re-enable it again. A prominent warning sounds great. Also wanted to mention that if I use youtube, often after a few minutes firefox will crash if LibreJS is enabled. I am new to the free software movement, but the ways that governments and businesses alike have completely ignored the wishes of the user is incredible. Even Firefox seems to be much more geared towards the collection of the users data without their consent more than ever before. I never realized the situation was this out of hand on the internet. I really appreciate all of FSF's efforts.

What do people think about offering an option for LibreJS users to set whether nonfree scripts should be outright blocked or if a prominent warning should be displayed? I think in the current state of affairs on the Web, frustrated people may disable the extension entirely. If they had a way that they could be warned about the nonfree JS and then still be provided a way to give feedback to the site, they might leave the extension on more. The default would/should still be to block. I understand it's tricky -- we don't want to encourage anyone to run nonfree JavaScript, but I think this option may on balance still be a good thing. -john -- John Sullivan | Executive Director, Free Software Foundation GPG Key: 61A0963B | http://status.fsf.org/johns | http://fsf.org/blogs/RSS Do you use free software?
