NoScript is now for Android



UPD: NoScript is an add-on that allows you to execute scripts only for resources from a manually supplemented whitelist. Read more here.
Recently, I was very tired from the abundance of advertising in Android browsers: the User-agent gives me out, and I become a target for "battery enhancements", "antivirus-my-phone-comes-an end", news sharing services of the kind "Scientists discovered a terrible the secret: eating cucumbers leads to ... "and banal full-screen banners with a giant inscription" Come and play with me! "
Unfortunately, developers of mobile browsers most often do not take a step to combat mobile advertising: who will chop the bitch on which he sits? I think many people remember removing AdBlock and others like it from Google Play . By the way, my problems with advertising in Google Chrome for Android were neither solved by AdBlock nor by AdFree: I bravely endured an abomination on the pages until today.
I knew that Firefox for Android supports some extensions (there is no NoScript among them on addons.mozilla.org for Android), I installed, I watched, but for the sake of AdBlock I didn’t want to switch: on the desktop I always work with the white list of script hosts ( ScriptSafe , and earlier - NotScripts for Chrome and NoScript for Firefox). But today I decided to google it thoroughly and came across this page: https://noscript.net/nsa/ . This is really the same NoScript with the same functionality as on the desktop. No more "lengthen your battery by 5 cm"!

Add-on for mobile Firefox is available at this link (again, among the official add-ons, Firefox does not yet have it).


The only inconvenience (for me is a minor one) is for the sake of synchronization of history and passwords, and on the desktop to switch from Chrome to Firefox.
A bow from me to the NoScript team - I am pleasantly surprised.
PS I really want to see the Web Of Trust at least for mobile Firefox.
