While interesting, I think this kind of functionality should be implemented only by browser developers and should be turned off by default. Really, I can wait 1 second until the site loads. What I don't want is some library accessing sites without my permission. I usually place mouse over links to see what URL it points to and I sometimes do not wish to click.

It works only with links from the website you’re on. When the domain or protocol is different InstantClick don’t (and can’t) preload it.

  I don't get the "can't" part. Surely you can load it as an image or iframe?

    Sure, I meant “preload” in the InstantClick sense: getting it ready to replace the DOM.

It's no different than a single page app eagerly fetching data...

>What I don't want is some library accessing sites without my permission. Well, in a way all sites already do that by embedding resources from different urls.
