Generalization is not good. Then we can say this world is the problem because there are some problems in the world. Useful Webassembly application, SSH in browser: https://www.ssheasy.com/ https://madewithwebassembly.com/showcase/ssheasy/ It is free software. It runs on user's computer. That means I can host it myself anywhere and access my servers through SSH without using my personal computer. Then I can read and write emails, handle notes, handle customers, make sales on the run. That is very specific use case. What I have been doing before is I have been downloading Putty.exe to access my remote servers from Internet cafes' Windoze computers. Sometimes it worked to run the Putty sometimes not, permissions were not enough. This way it will work stable. Many Webassembly applications can accept uploading of a file into your own browser. So files and data need not necessarily go to remote server. Or DICOM parser: https://www.orthanc-server.com/external/wasm-dicom-parser/ After making X-ray image in hospital, image is given to patient sometimes on the DVD-ROM. DICOM viewer runs in the browser, client-side, read the page. It can help doctors to review X-ray images. It is free software and specific use example. In those examples I cannot see anything bad.
