Re: [directory-discuss] The JavaScript problem with web browser blockers

[David Hedlund]

Facts:
* Average daily users for LibreJS on addons.mozilla.org: 3 317
* Average daily users for Adblock Plus on addons.mozilla.org: 21 710 693
* JavaScript filters found in EasyList+EasyPrivacy: 3858
* EasyList: 1993
* EasyPrivacy: 1865

GNU IceCat comes with both LibreJS and SpyBlock. Spyblock is a a 
modified variant of Adblock Plus by the IceCat maintainer, however it 
uses unmodified EasyList and EasyPrivacy, both are enabled by default.

Using a blocker that blacklist non-free JS before LibreJS is being used 
would save a lot of computer resources which promotes green computing.
