> JavaScript has unequivocally made the web worse for everyone but advertisers and perhaps the people that run CDNs. Do you really think this is defensible? That the web would be as popular or useful as it is today without the ability to run code in the browser? I'm curious if you think there is a majority of people that agree with this? > Why, of all the proposals here, are you trying to shit on this one on particular? I am not shitting on anyone - im trying to have an honest discussion about why you and the OP feel that javascript is such a scourge that it needs to be regulated. Not one person has addressed even one of my questions, you included. I'm sorry you're taking my challenge as hostility - its not intended that way. I submit that its possible I am missing something - perhaps there is situations out there that I don't have to deal with. I'm asking for an honest view point that I can try to understand. > ... pie in the sky ... Theres a difference between "here's something thats easily accepted is a good idea but might be difficult to implement" and this. I'm asking for an explanation of the premise itself.
