Look, I'm not counting on web developers providing me with a site that's fully functional without JavaScript. That would be stupid. I have no trouble enabling JavaScript for specific sites that need it.

Opera is a great browser and has good support for HTML5 and CSS3. In fact, since I refuse to live without snappy Mouse Gestures, I don't even really have a choice in my primary browser.

Also, redirecting a browser somewhere without using JavaScript (since it was disabled) should be a reasonably simple operation.

And finally.. Tinfoil? All in all, there was absolutely no reason for that personal attack of yours. So yeah, try to behave.

Well, re: tinfoil, you'll have to admit that turning js off is a little on the tinfoil side...

What's the supposed benefit of breaking 80% of the modern web?

Using lower resources?

Sites not "tracking" you with cookies?

Better security?
