@kat I dislike the fact that website content is delivered in a manner that requires a virtual machine running the source code and often even some human interaction. I very much prefer my web content to be available statically.
If the site provides javascript as a layer on top of statically available content, I don't care. But if I'm left out because of #NoScript, it's not something I want to take part of.

And the APIs disappear one by one...
