I think your parent post was talking about the Facebook Like/Google+ +1 buttons. In order for those to work, I believe they need to be loaded on the page via an iframe.

Things like Facebook's "share" and Twitter's "tweet" buttons don't execute any arbitrary (i.e. not specified by the developer) JavaScript.

Am I the only one who,

1. Doesn't have a Facebook account.

2. Runs NoScript to whitelist scripting and site trust.

3. Runs Cookie Whitelist to whitelist cookies.

4. Runs BetterPrivacy to wipe Flash/LSO cookies.

5. Runs Adblock Plus to prevent viewing ads wherever possible.

?

That said, at least some like Heise.de, have put in place solutions that do not add to the underlying problem.
