Review Summary

No-Script Suite Lite is praised for effectively blocking scripts, media, and other web elements, enhancing security with a simple interface. However, multiple users highlight significant drawbacks: lack of wildcard support necessitates manual subdomain whitelisting, whitelist controls often malfunction, and advanced script blocking customization is absent. The UI can be confusing, and some technical glitches reduce convenience. Overall, it's suitable for users wanting basic script blocking but lacks the granularity and polish found in similar extensions.

Pros

  • Effective at blocking scripts and elements like JavaScript, media, images, and objects.
  • Provides significant security by blocking unwanted scripts and web elements.
  • Simple and straightforward interface and functionality, making it easy to use for some users.
  • Helps block scripts that other plugins like Ghostery cannot.
  • Allows users to manage a whitelist to control allowed scripts on trusted sites.

Cons

  • Lacks wildcard support for subdomains, requiring manual whitelisting for each subdomain, which is tedious.
  • Whitelist functionality is problematic; some users report it does not work properly, forcing either full block or full allow.
  • User interface is considered confusing or convoluted by some, with limited customization or detailed control over scripts.
  • No advanced script blocking or selective script allowance; only page-level blocking allowed.
  • Some technical issues: extension may fail to start automatically and requires manual restart; no display of blocked scripts or details, making debugging difficult.
