Re: Links that recommend running nonfree JS code.

I think you have defined it well. 

 

I would expect that these potential problem cases occur rarely.
Can you recall any others besides this one?

Some others have mentioned social networking site links e.g. facebook et al. Though I am not sure this would apply to all of the ones listed because some of these services might work just as well if any "offending" software were blocked in the browser (if you look at the bottom left of http://www.gnome.org/ you'll see the icons for these social links, to find out what they are). I think that Facebook at least, pretty much does not work for much of anything unless you allow dodgy scripts on the browser. Maybe there are ways around that but I am not sure, to be honest. I am quite interested to find out what you make of these ones in relation to this question in general, actually.
