It doesn't matter if they are directly stealing cookies though.

Hmm, that is the reason you should have addons in your browser to prevent XSS, like uBlock.

uBlock prevents XSS? I didn't know that.

[-] nonexertion@lemmy.run 1 points 1 year ago

It blocks bunch of JS from being executed, and if it detects XSS, it gives you a popup to inform you.

Are you thinking of NoScript? That's what gives me the XSS popups.
