Yup, I use noscript and just booking a ticket of bus in eastern europe is taking me 10 to 15 minutes if I lose my current whitelist. There is also lots of website who just show a white page, because they do not cope with script failure in a proper way.
I can't imagine having that by default and expecting people to make any meaningful decision.
Now, if people didn't flock to external SaaS service with proprietary code and incentives to spy on us, maybe the problem wouldn't be so prevalent. But then, maybe if we did listen more the RMS instead of trashing him as "out of the reality", we wouldn't also be so surprsed of the current state of the web.
