ST Website getting worse

Hello,

 

probably some work on the ST website has been done recently . I use Firefox on OpenSuse Leap 15.4 and have Noscripts acitive. Of course ST.com is allowed, but now the Entrace page pulls in several second and third level external scripts. That way, with each visit to the ST entrance page  I have to again accept cookies. Tedious!

 

While all new ST microcontrollers have more and more security, I should allow a lot external sites access to my computer to access st.com and so add a lot of attack vectors to view your page? Please, think again!

 

Beside that, if the Firefox window is not wide enough, page layout gets unusable! Screenshot on request.

Our team confirmed that there was an update done that could cause a one time action to accept cookies again. Let me know if you see any other unusual behavior. 

@Uwe Bonnes , please share the screenshot you mentioned to illustrate the layout issues. I will be happy to pass it to a respective team and investigate. 

Thanks,

Over this week, the Forum keeps giving the cookie consent pop-up.

Especially happens when using the browser's 'back' button.

On Chrome.
