User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0 Build ID: 20170802100302 Steps to reproduce: go to websites like allgemeine-zeitung.de or willyweather.com.au Actual results: The sites functionality broke and nasty ads were displayed Expected results: The site experience should have been as good as always. Sites expect certain scripts to load or work in a specific way. Tracking Protection alters the results. Therefore being able to supply neutralised scripts that only do fulfill the minimal features while not being able to track people would greatly improve the user experience and reduce site breakage

Summary: Allow Tracking Protection to provide local shims for JS scripts → Tracking protection breaks allgemeine-zeitung.de and willyweather.com.au
I did a bit of testing on both of the sites and did not have a bad experience. All images were rendered, menus aligned, redirects performed, no nasty ads displayed, create account, sign in regardless if Tracking Protection (Basic/Strict) is enabled. [Tested with:] Browser / Version: Firefox Nightly 63.0a1 (2018-08-09) Operating System: Windows 10 Pro @Selek Respa can you still reproduce the issue?
