A non-OT hint: FWIW IceCat provides an experimetal, optional option trying to block non-free JavaScrip. Free JavaScript still remains JavaScript, this is another issue, but at least it's a step to more freedom, https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/IceCat/GNU_LibreJS . "The program LibreJS detects nonfree, nontrivial JavaScript in pages you visit, and blocks it." - http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html Regards, Ralf -- OT: Not verified by myself, but perhaps worth reading it: https://secure.avaaz.org/en/save_the_internet_eu_loc_2016/?bTrXNab&v=79141&cl=10375050907&_checksum=88dc554cfadfbf6f8a2f30c5508a726a2df5ecd88cfcdd4686e012174c9a97a7
