Some bombard users with <strong>JavaScript</strong> that <strong>tracks, stalls,</strong> or <strong>completely hijacks the experience</strong>. It’s aggressive, it’s invasive, and it’s everywhere. Opera should respond with precision: give users the power to block scripts—fully, instantly, globally—with a single toggle.</p>
<p dir="auto">This should neither be buried in dev tools nor filtered through extensions. It should be a visible built-in and <strong>with the click of a switch</strong> - <em>JavaScript are disabled.</em></p>
<p dir="auto">Opera should let we (the users) to <strong>add</strong> and <strong>remove</strong> sites that <strong>JavaScript blocking will be excluded.</strong> If a site deserves trust, we (the users) should have the option to whitelist it. But JavaScript blocking <strong>should not assume trust by default.</strong> That’s outdated thinking.</p>
<p dir="auto">Advanced users are tired of getting sandboxed by browsers afraid of offending ad tech. If a site breaks without JavaScript, that’s the site’s fault. Let it break. Let users decide what to permit, not the browser.</p>
<p dir="auto">Right now, Opera is feature-rich, but this is a missing feature. <strong>Brave users can block scripts. Firefox users can too.</strong> <em>Why not us?</em></p>
<p dir="auto">It’s time to treat privacy as more than a marketing slogan. A script-block toggle is not a luxury, it’s a necessity.</p>
<hr />
<p dir="auto"><strong>Here are some benefits of JavaScript blocking:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>
<p dir="auto"><em>It blocks malicious, slow, or spying scripts in real time.</em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto"><em>It dramatically improves page load speed and battery life.</em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto"><em><strong>It stops unnecessary CPU drain and memory hogging:</strong></em> <em>This is beneficial for older devices or low end devices like my Galaxy A05s.</em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto"><em><strong>It allows per-site control</strong></em> — <em>power users can tailor their browsing experience.</em></p>
</li>
<li>
<p dir="auto"><em>This will reinforce Opera’s commitment to privacy and performance.</em></p>
</li>
</ul>
<hr />
<p dir="auto">In a world where cybercrime is prevalent, we need to protect our data so well so that we will not be the targets of cyber-criminals and it will be hard for cyber-criminals to access our data even to the barest minimum.<br />
<strong>Privacy matters a lot.</strong></p>
