    Disabling JavaScript entirely is another data point for fingerprinting. Only a tiny fraction of users do it.

    Besides, without JavaScript most websites are not functional anymore. Those that are are likely not tracking you much in the first place.

      Yeah unfortunately disabling JS is not viable option tho onion websites are perfectly functional without JS and it just shows how unnecessarily JS had been expanded without regard for safety but theres no stopping the web.

      I disable JS with noscript.net and it really is an enormous pain. It has some security advantages, like I don’t get ambushed so easily by an unfamiliar site and pop ups. I often will just skip a site if it seems too needy
