I doubt that. Just the opposite: A web page which uses scripting will
not be displayed when NoScript is on. So you don't reach all possible
customers. In the past I often prefered web shops that worked without
scripting to others that required it. And these shops prooved that
scripting is not needed to provide the essential things in the web:
Information. Those who just want to view TV should do so. And those who
want to play games should do so too. I just want information in a clear
and fast way. If someone wants to sell me something just inform me about
the product but don't play unmeaningless videos or such garbage.
I agree with the sentiment and the first browser I use has Javascript
disabled. But when I last saw this argument elsewhere somebody tried to
make the point that scripting was evil by saying that NoScript had
something like 3 million users, which was trumped by the argument that
that leaves several hundred million browsers without it.
