On May the 13th 2005 I released NoScript 1.0.
I'm currently scrambling to release version 13 within this week, and properly celebrate 20 years of @noscript πŸ₯‚

Better up-to-date than sorry!

If you're using an old @torproject browser (< 13.5.13) upgrade now, before @noscript and the security levels break.

A key mark of totalitarianism is government and party ownership and control of the means of speech and information. The party, through its main apparatchik, owns Twitter. The government wants to own TikTok. The only free speech is the fascists' speech.

I’m asking companies not to let TikTok stay dark! I will issue an executive order on Monday to extend the period of time before the law’s prohibitions take effect, so that we can make a deal to protect our national security. The order will also confirm that there will be no liability for any company that helped keep TikTok from going dark before my order.
 
Americans deserve to see our exciting Inauguration on Monday, as well as other events and conversations.
 
I would like the United States to have a 50% ownership position in a joint venture.  By doing this, we save TikTok, keep it in good hands and allow it to say up.  Without U.S. approval, there is no Tik Tok.  With our approval, it is worth hundreds of billions of dollars - maybe trillions. 
 
Therefore, my initial thought is a joint venture between the current owners and/or new owners whereby the U.S. gets a 50% ownership in a joint venture set up between the U.S. and whichever purchase we so choose.

πŸ’₯Starting 2025 with a bang:
NoScript 12.1.1 is the first stable release sharing the same code branch across Manifest V2 (Firefox 🦊, @torproject πŸ§…) and Manifest V3 (Chromium-based) browsers.
It also fixes 11.5.2/12.0.x bugs caused by the new stateless architecture both browser families share.
Many thanks to opentech.fund for supporting this effort! ❀️
Coming soon, more bug fixing and UX improvements, on track to celebrate our 20th birthday on May the 13th with NoScript 13 πŸŽ‚.
Happy new year! 🎊

PSA for @noscript beta-testers on Firefox: please manually install NoScript 12.1.901 if you want to stay on the development channel - noscript.net/getit#development

Unfortunately a NoScript 12.0.901 bug prevents it from receiving updates on the development channel.
12.0.901 users will be automatically updated to 12.1.1 (stable channel) as soon as it's published on AMO.

If you (hopefully) wish to keep receiving early betas, please manually install latest noscript.net/getit#development

Thank you!

11.5.x is out ( & @torproject only) πŸ”₯

Main news:

⚑ Minimum compatibility bumped from Firefox 59 to 115, allowing for huge code modernization opportunities (11.4.44rc1 is still available for older browsers and in forced MV2 mode)
⚑ Switched NoScript and the NoScript Commons Library to a fully stateless architecture: a major step toward compatibility (coming with NoScript 12.0 alpha for -based browsers later this month)

@grabbi_it @noscript monocultures are bad for the ecosystem. Google is already a de-facto (and now de-iure) monopoly on the Web, and if Gecko dies nothing could ever stand in its way. Also, more to the technical point, noscript.net/usage/#limitation

These comments under @noscript's Chrome Web Store entry just made my day ❀️
However: I'm pretty positive NoScript isn't going away from there (MV3 transition is underway), BUT switching to a non-Chromium browser is a smart and sensible move anyway, for your own good and for the Web's sake πŸ¦ŠπŸ§…

Screenshots from the Chrome Web Store with latest 3 comments/ratings for NoScript:

My Fortnite Oct 6, 2024
"NoScript is the smartest add-on any end user can have.  It takes control over your browser back for you from advertisers and and anyone else. Stopping them from showing you things you don't want to see.  Say goodbye to everything you've been forced to look at when surfing the net.  NoScript puts you are in control of what you see, hear, and allow into your computer.  
And NoScript developed by Giorgio Maone. is the original script blocker all others are based on."

⚠️ PSA: @noscript 11.4.34 got accidentally broken on Firefox 78 and below. Therefore I've just marked it as incompatible with older browsers, automatically downgrading them to 11.4.31, which can also be manually installed from noscript.net/feed.
I plan to restore retro-compatibility in 11.4.35, but I'm also genuinely curious: why so many apparently security conscious people are still using ancient, outdated and vulnerable browsers?
