One way to way to get rid of the problems with web pages that "call home" is to disable scripts, which is my default security setting. I would prefer not to remove Wikimedia sites from my whitelist because some of their JavaScript is useful. I realize that my perspective is a little old-fashioned, but why do you think it is not a good idea to accommodate those who do not want unrequested active content running on their computers?
