So, you are trusting all web pages you view? Because these are unknown code running on your box which probably has some beefy private data.

I know some people browse the web while gaming, but I don't. For the gaming use case, I legit want a toggle that says "yes, all the code I'm running is trusted, now please prioritize maximum performance at all costs." For all I care this mode can cut the network connection since I don't do multiplayer.

I imagine people doing e.g. heavy number crunching might want something similar.

I run noscript and try to be selective about which pages I enable.
