It would be really nice if you could blacklist websites from using extensions in Safari, e.g. banking websites.
There are lots of useful extensions out there that would be nice to use, but I'm concerned if they became compromised (which happens regularly[1]) they might hijack my data.
Safari has a great feature that stops extensions from being able to read or transmit anything from websites you visit, which is great, but limits the effectiveness of a lot of ad blockers.
