Description
Speedreader can interact badly with Shields and adblock lists: #38118. Also, Speedreader causes two scrollbars to appear on https://metro.co.uk/2023/01/01/manchester-man-ate-124-kebabs-in-month-for-charity-18023290/ because of EasyList Cookie because of the rule
metro.co.uk##body,html:style(overflow: auto !important; position: initial !important;)
We should just disable Shields when Speedreader is active. The privacy risk is minimal given that in Speedreader mode the website is heavily bounded in what it can do.
