maybe better to move this to 'Forced JavaScript on websites' and narrow the scope or something?
This article currently reads as an opinionated article about how bad a programming language is. Whether it's valid or not is beyond me, but I'm not sure it really fits the wiki, especially as it's a bit of a stretch to call it a 'product'. An incident/theme page on javascript being forced for tracking etc. could make ore sense instead? Keith (talk) 08:12, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
