So uh, I just tried to visit the link and my antivirus just blocked it:
Should I take this to mean that they're now starting to go even to the extent of blocking websites critical of the narrative? Or was this some strange false positive?
I think antivirus apps are total shit in browsers and I'd never use them for that.
Probably B. Not because the government wouldn’t do that, but because they’re not tech savvy at all.
I don't know that it would even be the government exactly, just whatever tech corporation Avast belongs to. Avast does for sure block the movie sites that stream movies and shows for free which I keep having to whitelist in order to use. Avast doesn't even claim there's a script in those cases, just that the url is on their "blacklist."
Avast is a waste of money and bloatware that comes preloaded on computers. Its not antivirus at all but a drain on your system resources. They love loading this software on machines then giving you a timer that your compter will explode if you dont pay. Its telling you the website is trying to run some Javascript which is something a lot of websites use. Its not a firewall looking up some IP or anything. Make sure Windows Defender is installed because its free and built into windows then remove Avast.

Thanks, yes I realize it was seeing some kind of script it didn't like but like you said, javascript is something many many sites use which is why I was so suspicious that it was blocking jewishcurrents.org in particular. It's not like it's uncommon for me to visit sites running a lot of scripts lol. Only very rarely will I get an avast warning and block, even less often with "Script-inf" listed as the "infection" type. The only other place that consistently triggers avast are pirate movie streaming sites which I know avast actually blacklists. I'm also using NoScript/uMatrix with strong rules and always selectively allow only the bare minimum scripts needed to load any given webpage.
Anyway, thank you for the advice. I would never ever pay for this shit, I only have the free version but omg yes, avast is such horrid nagware. A couple times a week or so it will force these moving (which makes them hard to quickly close) popups that say shit like "You are being tracked!" with a button to "remove tracking cookies" only for it to bring up an ad for their premium version or other trash software. It's funny since I won't tolerate ads in like videos or on websites at all. The only reason I've put up with avast in spite of my disgust is that a while back someone I trusted told me as bad as it is that it's still better than the windows default and how necessary it is to have at least some kind of antivirus installed in addition to defender or whatever default. I was always skeptical of that though, so I believe you if you say the windows one suffices. I'm hoping soon to get a new (or another used) laptop and will be installing linux on it making the avast question moot.
Love how the talking head has yellow eyes.
