Erik van Straten<a href="https://mastodon.nl/@sjmulder" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@sjmulder</a> : door verschillende browsers te gebruiken heb ik daar minder last van. Vooral Firefox met NoScript (meestal op mijn Android smartphone) geeft mij enorm veel rust. Soms kan ik pagina's met paywall geheel of grotendeels lezen (zie screenshot).Je hebt wel een leercurve voor NoScript en Firefox heeft ook nadelen (zie bijv. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/114341143568071368" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/114341143568071368</a> en de follow-up toot over NoScript).Vaak werkt het als je de primaire partij toestemming geeft om JavaScript uit te voeren, maar derde partijen niet toestaat (waaronder 3rd parties met namen waar "cookiebot" in vóórkomt).Firefox Focus ondersteunt geen NoScript, maar is het meest privacy-vriendelijk doordat alle geschiedenis gewist wordt bij het sluiten van de browser. Sowieso belangrijk, maar in deze browser helemaal (omdat HSTS niet werkt): zet "https only" aan. Dat betekent dat je *gewaarschuwd* wordt bij onveilige http-verbindingen, die je vervolgens wél kunt toestaan.Wat ook helpt is als tooters geen "URL-verkorters" gebruiken, zodat je kunt zien naar welke website de link leidt.Ten slotte probeer ik vaak het m.i. belangrijkste stuk te quoten, of een screenshot te plaatsen (zo mogelijk mét Alt tekst).
