Tor's script blocking is dangerously lacking. I usually add my own script blocking that is much more manually controlled. Yet, when I let all that up, or use the stock, or use the stock with the mostly-disabled NoScript all the way disabled it can't reach the login page.

Yet, I've found an anomaly, so this is the case for 3 out of 4 machines. I'm am investigating the dependency and why one system's torbrowser in one VM seems to have little problems, just your standard 3 minute wait and 2 times clicking I am human.

Strange, because TOR browser on my phone blocks 4chan's scripts at the highest setting, and those guys have good fingerprinting as far as I'm aware.

Indeed, it does block scripts on the safest level, but his complaint was that you have little control over it, I believe NoScript's settings are reset after a browser restart so you can't build a whitelist. I go his route sometimes as well.

I've used no script many years ago, and I've been having great success with ublock origin. Great tool.
