I don't think it needs to write viruses or hack anything for it to be able to cause harm. It could just use some type of an online store to send you a very interesting fedex package. Or choose to use a service provider to inflict harm.

Yeah but it's pretty useless for tracking what https requests get made or pretty much anything that uses encryption. You can filter by https GET requests but you won't be able to see what's inside them.

Buttttt, it doesn't render as quickly as a React app would.. Think about the DOM! It also probably mutates state, how dare they! This is proof that if hipster JS programmers disappeared tomorrow the web would flourish once again.
