I used to do that, but it would sometimes break functionality on certain sites, and the whitelist is a bit of a pain to manage. I've had good success with http://disconnect.me


Yeah, there are some problems, but nothing too critical for me. Examples:

1) Disqus-like commenting systems (I don't use them)

2) Diigo bookmarklet (whitelisted)

3) Youtube liking/favoriting at the time when they tried to marry it with Google+ (fixed now)

And I think that's it, can't recall anything else.


Yeah, Disqus and Facebook comments were the issue for me, although I don't know if I'm better off being able to see them or not :)
