Indeed.

If I have write-access to the html file then yes; the user can change the
klipse.js URL in the header of the file.  If it is read-only, as when
published via to the web, then the user would need something like the
Firefox addon "Decentraleyes" (I don’t know if it works with GNU IceCat):

    Protects you against tracking through "free", centralized, content
    delivery. It prevents a lot of requests from reaching networks like
    Google Hosted Libraries, and serves local files to keep sites from
    breaking. Complements regular content blockers.

I would advocate a user solution like "Decentraleyes" that would work in
general across pages.
