Not sure about other browsers but this is incorrect for Chrome and Firefox. They both have flags to disable WebGL and WASM. Please be careful not to spread misinformation, we owe it to ourselves to research our posts well.

We owe to ourselves to make computers better to the regular user.

Those flags are mostly only known to Webdevs and not directly exposed in the settings panel.

I don't think the regular user even knows what WebGL and WASM are, they will just wonder why their browser game isn't working and then google the cryptic setting that they have to change to get it to work.
Ah but the browser game will be working, while doing some extra non-game related activities.
