  Yes, "caring about what programs are running on my computer" is a property we should look down on users for having.

    I don't think we should look down on users for that. I think we should question the sense of entitlement when people change settings and it breaks websites. Websites that people provide to you for no charge. What I find irritating is when people make the decision to use NoScript, knowing the tradeoffs involved, then are vocal about sites not working. You made the decision, easily reversible, now live with it!

      This is more to the tune of friendly(if irritated) advice. Time's website may well be for free, but they want me to buy their paid products, they need to sell themselves to me. Wanna know how you can make sure your sales pitch fails? Try to deliver it via unverified code that could be doing anything. Noscript is a standard part of all sensible internet users internet security, for the simple reason that there is no way to know what a block of javascript is doing unless you first capture and examine it. If your product pitch won't work until I desecure my computer, I guess I'll never see your sales pitch. Getting mad at me won't change that. e: Nor will downvoting me :D
