I agree. I used to use NoScript, RequestPolicy, and BetterPrivacy, but I finally realized I was spending far more time tuning policies than I was actually using the web. And they were TOTALLY unusable by non technically inclined people.

My compromise now is to use uBlock Origin (virtually never breaks anything), HTTPS Everywhere (on rare occasion breaks a site), Self-Destructing Cookies (by design cannot break sites), and 3rd-party cookies disabled.

The only thing that banning 3rd-party cookies broke was CapitalOne360's gateway into regular CapitalOne, but they even managed to fix this in recent months.

Try uMatrix, which combines many of those functions into one extension. It's by the same person as uBlock Origin.
