Absolute Fail

1) A scripting language when we have had real ones for 40 years.

2) A web server other than a proper one to actually serve web pages on the Internet or Intranet.

They should be banned from distributing software.

This is crazy on so many levels.

You also don't need lured. I use uMatrix because companies such as CNN and the BBC have served adverts with Malware. Google doesn't seem to really care.

Adverts need to be an image served from the main page's domain with simply an ordinary clickable link. Or links. A client side pure HTML image map is OK.

Also web sites using 3rd party code loaded a page load rather than having their own local checked copy is a privacy and security fail.

BUT A STUPID DESKTOP APPLICATION!!!!!!
