Comment (by johnakabean):

 It's not really for ads (that's just a bonus). try these addons> they can
 block what domains/ip any EXTENSION connects to. By default, all my
 extensions cannot contact any external source. When I add an exception for
 an extension to contact a site required for functionality, it does not
 automatically allow other extensions or even a script of that site on that
 one extension, if I intended to only allow xhr.

 Noscript is ridiculous to use for torbrowser when it's creator made
 something even better. It's like staying with windows 98 when we have
 Windows 10 coming out.


 PLEASE just try umatrix! umatrix is NOT for blocking ads; ublock isn't
 really either; it's just what it's good at.
