I agree with much of her article, but I think LibreJS still has a place. Basically, people need to start working on extensions to operate websites with the extension's JavaScript and not the site's JS, and LibreJS can be used in emergencies when an extension hasn't been found. The system's package manager (Guix) can manage extensions in the back end. The LibreJS standard, as I mentioned before, is mostly important to HUMANS: so regular people can look at the copyright info and go "oh, ok, looks good. I'll run those." -- Caleb Herbert OpenPGP public key: http://bluehome.net/csh/pubkey
