Hello!
Since a few days I am encountering problems with the FR24 web frontend, especially with the menu bar: Clicking on an item (e.g. "Data / History") opens the corresponding submenu, but when thereafter clicking on a specific menu item (e.g. "Airports") nothing happens! Right click and chosing "open in a new tab" will do it as a workaround, but that is very inconvenient. Also clicking on the FR24 logo in the upper left corner does not reload the page as normally.
I am using Firefox with latest updates and the ingenious NoScript-AddOn which limits the execution of JavaScipt only to those from whitelisted origins. Since many years I have blacklisted scripts from google-analytics.com. All other JavaScript sources required by FR24 are manually whitelisted. Today I found out that the only way to make the FR24 menues work normally is to whitelist google analytics too.
Why??? I do not want to start a discussion why I want to blacklist google analytics, that is not the topic. But in all the years of using NoScript I never detected a webpage with a deficiency of basic functionality caused by blocking JavaScripts from google analytics!!! That includes also FR24 until a few days ago …
Why are the Java scripts from google analytics now required for the functionality of the FR24 web menues??? Do you want to analyze every menu click we make?!?!?
I am a paying user with a Gold subscription plan. And I am not willing to whitelist google-analytics.com permanently only for making the FR24 web frontend work normally! So please return to normal web frontend functionality without depending on the google analytics scripts, as it was before.
Regards,
Jörg
