I've also been using it for about a year and am generally happy with it. One caveat is that it does sometimes end up breaking site functionality when it blocks a script from loading, occasionally in confusing ways. Usually you can fix this by overriding a few of the blocked things in the dropdown list, but it takes a little bit of technical savvy to figure out what needs to be allowed. I had to disable it on my parents' computer because they got frustrated by sites breaking.

This is mostly with an earlier version; I just upgraded to 1.0 today.




Some sites do absolutely horrible. The worst I've seen set has been rdio. I'm boing to put that down to bad developer priorities.


Most sites are not designed to cleanly downgrade when an asset isn't loaded. I kingside it put website design :)
