Why on earth:

1) Does the Facebook blocker block the page from anything to load. Weird. 2) Does Color.com ask for SO many permission. I mean allow Color may mark notifications as read?

Why? Am I missing something?




This is what color.com looks like to me (Chrome 14 with adblock):

Not made for people with adblockers, I guess.


Same here. It's lacking a bit of... Color.


The Facebook blocker isn't to blame here. It's sloppy JavaScript programmers who assume that the FB global variable will always be initialised and available to their other scripts. If they bulletproof their access to FB, the rest of their site wouldn't break for paranoid visitors.
