You've probably used WebAssembly many times without knowing it. Figma uses it heavily, for example. Why do you want to say no?

- jart 4y agoWhat difference does it make why people want to say no? The issue is we're not being given a choice. WebAssembly is very new, it's controversial, it reduces transparency, and it increases the risk of exposing bugs in your hardware to every news site you visit as well as their ad exchanges. There should be a config option that lets people who are concerned about these things disable it.
