- userbinator 3y agoThe point is that most sites don't need that much intense JS processing. Also, a "no, and don't ask again" button would be very useful in this case.
- InsomniacL 3y agoThe end-user would have no idea if that much JS processing is legitimately required or not. "no, and don't ask again" would cause no-end of support issues.
- avodonosov 3y agoI know one end-user who would very much want a browser setting for default compute limit for domains / pages, after which browser will start asking confirmation, as described in the above comments. Web pages could also ask for such permission upfront, using e.g. a Meta tag. Such a setting whould also reduce malicious crypto mining possibilities.
