Luminous: JavaScript events blocker Extension

We have amazing projects like Lightbeam, NoScript, ScriptSafe, uBlock Origin, HTTPS Everywhere and many others. All have the proposal to identify and/ or prevent the execution of questionable codes and requests.

These tools are vital, but we inevitably need to make concessions to access many websites as we have a massive use of JavaScript on the web. When you access for example the Google Translate website, with a combo of 3 extensions (HTTPS Everywhere, uBlock Origin and ScriptSafe) and Luminous, we have the following result after a few moments:

- 6 requests influenced by HTTPS Everywhere
- 75 requests blocked by uBlock Origin
- 4 items blocked by ScriptSafe
- 7,6 thousand JavaScript executions detected by Luminous

It’s about this number (7,6 thousand) that we are lost and with hands tied, it’s there that we do not know what happens and we still do not have the freedom to decide what can or can’t be executed. This is the main purpose of the project, filling this gap and being able to see and control what happens. As a side effect we end up also having an interesting tool that helps in JavaScript code developing process by giving us visibility about what is happening.

macthyas zix (ID: 000000937aeb728e) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/19/2022 I don't know what to say, this extension packs everything I ever needed when tweaking abuse webpages with lots of pops and onclick events. Easiest workaround I have done :)

Jorgen Kesseler (ID: 000000858200f7a0) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/15/2021 Great and powerful extension that let's you block specific javascript events. I use it to stop websites using lesser know methods interactive with the clipboard for instance.

Alireza Mohamadi (ID: 0000009c328e9848) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/30/2020 It's awesome. The interface is good but ruling is a bit complex. I don't know if the rule I'm adding is applied to all websites or this one only, because they can be checked simultaneously. Please tweak it.
