 elements/ Link to description]

 Is there a way to implement this feature in NoScript or the browser itself
 without breaking anonymity? It'd help save bandwidth and make page loading
 faster. It might also work as an ad-blocker which would reduce the need to
 install extensions that make the browser fingerprint unique. It won't
 prevent the browser from connecting to servers that serve ads but it'd at
 least block the media elements like GIFs from loading automatically.

 Ps: I'm just a user and only know the basics of how tor and ad-blockers
 work. Apologies if this question has already been asked before. I didn't
 know how to use the search function.
