NotScripts has been abandoned by the developer. It was removed from the Chrome Extension store in September 2014.
 
==Reception==
NotScripts was described by Martin Brinkmann of [[Ghacks]] as the first extension to bring some of [[NoScript]]'s functionality to Chrome.<ref name="ghacks-chrome">[http://www.ghacks.net/2010/08/18/notscript-brings-noscript-functionality-to-google-chrome/ NotScript Brings NoScript Functionality To Google Chrome], Martin Brinkmann, [[Ghacks]], August 18, 2010, Accessed December 07, 2014</ref> In comparison, he remarked that NoScript on [[Mozilla Firefox|Firefox]] additionally offered [[cross-site scripting]] (XSS) protection.<ref name="ghacks-opera"/>
 
==ScriptBlock==
The extension was picked up by another developer and continued under the name ScriptBlock.<ref name="ScriptBlock">https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/scriptblock/hcdjknjpbnhdoabbngpmfekaecnpajba</ref><ref name="ghacks-scriptblock">[http://www.ghacks.net/2013/10/04/scriptblock-chrome-blocks-scripts-running-automatically-websites/ ScriptBlock for Chrome blocks scripts from running automatically on websites], Martin Brinkmann, [[Ghacks]], October 04, 2013, Accessed December 10, 2014</ref>
