Version 4.9.3 of GNU LibreJS has been released.

GNU LibreJS aims to address the JavaScript problem described in The
JavaScript Trap. LibreJS is a free add-on for GNU IceCat and other
Mozilla-based browsers. It blocks nonfree nontrivial JavaScript while
allowing JavaScript that is free and/or trivial.

You can download and install this new version from
http://www.gnu.org/software/librejs/

If you own or maintain a website, please take the time to free your
JavaScript: http://www.gnu.org/software/librejs/free-your-javascript.html

[BUG FIXED]
* Certain pages would be completely blocked from loading when an illegal
character was found in a JavaScript file. This has been fixed in version
4.9.3. All pages should load regardless. Thanks to John Sullivan for his
report.
* The ISC license notice was not detected as free correctly. It is now
detected as free. This can be tested at:
http://lduros.net/assets/testing/isc-license-test/  Thanks to Alexander
B. for his report on this issue.


Please report bugs at bug-librejs@gnu.org and remember to complain to
websites you visit that have nonfree JavaScript.
