Yes but that is nothing like NoScript 
Also, Permit Cookies or GTFO (another good one I forgot to mention )

Honestly, the only reason you use those things is because you don't feel safe using FireFox. Chrome already has loads of security integrated, and updated as often as needed. Stuff like NoScript is unnecessary when you're already surfing in a safe browser

It's not just a question of security. Using AdBlock and NoScript I can prevent all the junk I am not interested in looking at or using from being downloaded to my PC, hence reducing page load times by reducing the amount of stuff to be loaded. Why should I wait an extra 10 seconds to load every single page because some JavaScript wants to fart around loading useless crud in the background or because some silly flashing advertisements I won't click on anyway are being downloaded?
I don't use Firefox because it's the fastest or most secure, I use it because I happen to like the layout of the user interface and the features it offers. If people have a problem with my personal preference they can go flush their head down a toilet.
