This is where I draw the line, Hacker News. The end of the road.
Do you know how many shitty stink eyes I've gotten from people on this site, just because I've dared to speak out against JavaScript, Cookies and Analytics.
But oh! OH!
Wired writes a story about it, and suddenly, the clouds open, and the sunshine just pours through.
*OF COURSE* an article in *Wired* is gospel! We were
*FOOLS* to ever claim otherwise! JavaScript is the devil!
Boos and hisses for JavaScript all around.
Next week, Firefox will do something sinister like bury about:config in an even deeper and more obscure location, like within the js console, so that you can't get to it from the address bar, and I'll cry foul, and you'll all take a big fat shit on me. Just like you did when I complained about Firefox taking the javascript checkbox out of the preferences panel and burying the it under about:config.

Okay, Hacker News. I see how it is.
