1. User disables Javascript
2. User's browser cannot automatically request resources (e.g. via img src tag). Either user prefers to download images manually (e.g. as text-based browser allow) or because he has fine-grained control over his name lookups (e.g. a managed HOSTS file or authoritative nameserver on localhost). User request the resources he wants specifically (how many would deliberately choose to download an ad?). He does not leave download choices to browser authors and web developers.
3. User's browser does not advertise compression support. User does not allow web pages to issue HTTP requests e.g. via Javacript. User downloads JSON directly and parses it to obtain the desired resource URL's.
4. User has no desire to compress HTTP headers. User is not interested in SPDY.
What if someone has automated this sort of common sense approach so that it's so simple your grandmother would find it easy to use?
Would this make security consultants, browser authors and web developers upset?
