On: Please ban sites which fail to function using vanilla HTML

I see what you are going for and in an ideal world, I would love for there to be some way to prevent those types of abuses. But the problem with this proposition is that it would effectively ban every modern SPA and take us back to web 1.0.

You say that like it would be a bad thing!

yeah, like there was anything wrong with having 6 levels of nested tables and dozens of placeholder gifs all over the page...

Even if that ever was the norm, which it wasn't, it still is better than what we have today.

Web 2.0*

Web 3.0 doesn't function without JS, web 2.0 was enhanced using JS.

I'd love to ban single-page apps, especially ones that break URLs by forcing all actual information into the #fragment.
