Related: does anyone know how good current browsers are at mitigating Spectre-related attacks through JavaScript? It's hard to run a browser on the modern Internet without at least running _some_ untrusted JS.
Turning off the mitigations in the kernel sure speeds things up a lot on older machines, but if browsers don't do a proper job of mitigating those attacks then someone could extract data through JavaScript.
