JS Toggle

A simple toggle for globally enabling / disabling JavaScript.

I released JS Toggle a little over a year ago and I'm proud to say that I still use it nearly every day. I created this extension because I wanted two things:

• A simple javascript toggle that I could trust not to send my data anywhere, and that does not request unnecessary permissions (i.e. it is not necessary to view the content of a website to prevent it from executing code).

• An aesthetic that wasn't too ugly so I could tolerate the toggle button being visible in my browser menu.

There are similar extensions that are more robust, but I like code that strives to do only a single task without additional bells and whistles. No surprises here - just a simple, unobtrusive switch.
