From the title I thought it would be something along the lines of an NaCl implementation in JavaScript.
It's actually a software that helps breaking the web for its users. Basically it allows paywalled websites to send users their inaccessible data even of they won't be able to read it. The title should be "DRM for web page that eat up your data plan even if you can't access the content".

- diggan 7y agoI agree in general that AMP is user and web hostile, but this move doesn't seem to enable something that was impossible before. The drawbacks around this is the same as before, heavy reliance on AMP and Google for something trivial to implement yourself. Websites could have done this before as well, and many in fact already do. It's generally established pattern in webdev if you need to be able to unlock content in a fast manner, without having to request additional content from a backend. Notably, many P2P networks works the same way regarding private-but-still-distributed content as well.
