Jow Forums uses paranoid whitelists, so there's nothing to "disable"
Retard

Is it really too much to ask to not have this malicious garbage inserted? It seems nearly every two months we get some new script quietly injected thats somehow worse than the last. Like how the past few straight up broke the website if you blocked them the normal way due to how they were tied to the elements. Not to mention hiro never comments on it.
>everything I dont like is pol/trump/nazis/incel
Retard here, they deleted the /sp/ thread
How do I make sure I block this, and only this? I got Scriptsafe and it stripped back most of the site
Am I safe like this?

what tool is this?
red means ublock is blocking it. so yes it's safe.
not him but that's umatrix
anyone making a big deal about this is a retard and needs to fuck off of this board. Literally using umatrix with the DEFAULT settings will block this trash.
>Retard here
Yes, you really are.
>allowing Jow Forums(nel) cookies
>allowing google scripts
>allowing gstatic scripts
Embarrassing.
you need to allow gstatic scripts unless you have a pass (like me lol xd)
I'd wager most people on this site use Chrome as far as desktop browsers go
Not Jow Forums, but Jow Forums as a whole
Not if you force non-JS captcha via 4chanX.
Wait, how do you make your context menu like that?
>he isn't an advanced user
buy a pass
You need Jow Forums(nel) cookies to post though.
What is the appropriate domain to blacklist in a DNS block? powerad.ai alone?
yep
the fuck is powerad.ai?
>domains connected
Any domain with "ad" in the name is just bloat. I remember one exclusively for concerts and the like, just block them for all sites.
>ironically, these scripts don't appear on Jow Forums, just 4channel
4channelers btfo
Jow Forums has adtng though.
>/sp/ is more alert of the botnet than you are Jow Forums
no shit
they only know u b o / u matr
>pol is bad
>/sp/ is more alert of the botnet than you are Jow Forums
Some of already have shit like that blocked ahead of time, specially with JavaScript disabled or with a basic ad blocker installed. Fuck off back to /sp/.
Well that's one way to use uMatrix.
It eventually breaks.
>using umatrix with the DEFAULT settings
Embarrassing.
You mean phone posters.
>It eventually breaks.
werks4me
I will try it again then.
>it has teh flags, must be pol
You should be, but if anyone's got it green, add "powerad.ai/*" (without quotes) to My filters.
uMatrix already blocks it though
Nigger everything goes through the government now. Reddit Facebook all trigger dod* filters.
is clover safe?
yes
who's behind that domain
next level shit
>block js
>google tracks your posts trough captcha anyway
>amazon buys your internet history from your isp anyway
>amazon buys your internet history from your isp anyway
Even in Third World countries?
Prob not, they value western users data more for obvious reasons.
hey that's my umatrix setup too
bless you child
Oh hi Josh
it is Joshua Gomez, isnt it?
dont panic we arent after everyone, just you
and we do glow in the dark
What's that coin mining filter again?
What a piece of shit, at least not on the board that is heavily against garbage like this, but no.
