I agree with johns. As much as all code should be clearly licensed, we
are way too far away from that.

Speaking of the future, eventually librejs functionality will be part of
the browser itself. Firefox (and the derivate abrowser) recently added
js blocking to the browser: the ui says "Content Blocking: Block
third-party content, like ads or code, that can slow your browsing and
track you around the web."  That list should include blocking code that
denies your freedom.
