But that wouldn't matter right? The goal is to send a message to people
about it.wp's vulnerability to laws like this, not to actually prevent
people from accessing. I'd venture to guess that the overwhelming majority
of it.wp (or any project for that matter) readers wouldn't even know to
disable javascript. I probably wouldn't have figured it out unless someone
told me.
