I don't have a problem running JS but it is getting to the point where, if you can't prove you are JS worth running perhaps the browser should refuse to.
Why have we gone from 'oh only run programs you trust not anything from the web' to 'oh just run every bit of bloatware out there any time you move around the web?
99% of JS should not exist, 0.9 % of it does anything useful and the other .1% is straight up malicious...
- joveian 4y agoI do this with uBlock Origin. It is easy and I'd say less impactful than blocking third party domain (de-CNAMEd) CDNs by default (that I also do). Some sites just don't show anything without javascript, though, so it works best if you are often willing to just ignore those sites (not common but not all that uncommon either).
