0) that's most definitely not blank page, I have noscript and it does load content. 1) what kind of response is this?

  I have JavaScript enabled and it showed a blank page for me too, I had to reload the page a couple of times, I guess it's getting some traffic from HN

  Using JSBlocker here. no content. Just doing some futile effort to show web developers that to get some basic text without javascript is cool. Of course, do whatever you want with your site. Maybe I was a bit rude.

    Noscript+Firefox here. There's full content - the entire page has a JS-disabled full text of every post wrapped in a large <noscript> block. Does jsblocker completely wipe out noscript tags or something?

    Not rude if it was correct. But this blogspot website works fine without javascript. Also, for the ones that do not, it is easy to dump any blogger (blogspot) website to "basic text" using netcat, etc. No javascript needed. The problem must be in the blocker you are using or something else. imo, blockers that work via the browser are not the optimal way to retrieve basic text. You are still using a massive browser which you do not need to retrieve a page of basic text, which can easily be accomplished by a smaller, more simple program. Using a small tcp client like netcat and saving the page to a (temporary) file is one way to do it. If you then want to view the basic text by opening the file in a large, complex, ad-sponsored, web browser that is optimized for running javascript and automatically connecting to third party servers, you can do that. Or you could use something simpler. You have a choice.

Idiot who voluntarily breaks their web browser, then complains that it's broken. Bye!

    Not a bad thing. You are obviously more than free to configure your browser however you want. Just don't whine about it. Maybe give some constructive criticism (It would be nice if..., Maybe you could consider to...). Or just open the developer console and inspect the source, like a hacker/reverse engineer.

    This site works without javascript. If you block <noscript> tags however you won't see anything.
