This reminds me of a time when a site asked me to enable JavaScript for &quot;a better experience&quot;. I had been defaulting to JS off for a long time due to how effectively it stopped ads and other annoyances, and see these messages a lot, but this time I was momentarily curious for some reason; I did, only to be immediately assaulted with a bunch of ads, some crap following the pointer&#x2F;scrolling, slide-overs, and other distracting annoyances that I would not at all call &quot;a better experience&quot;.

I find that the majority of sites are perfectly readable without JS.<p>On the other hand, I wonder if there are sites which use JS to hide the content and display a &quot;turn <i>off</i> JavaScript to view this article&quot;, or &quot;install adblocker to view this article&quot;...
