@[email protected] Just another piece of evidence that people care more about convenience than privacy, sadly. People aren’t willing to put up with a single broken website

Au contraire. Most people put up with broken sites all the time. The problem is that those people generally aren’t aware that the sites are broken, because they’re also unaware of the concept of allowing/denying javascripts. If they denied javascripts by default, they’d notice that most of the sites they access are actually broken sites. The ones that function without javascripts are the unbroken ones.
