This is another one of those horse-blinders style arguments that considers only for-profit/institutional/etc contexts and so doesn't realize their very method of measuring something through javascript program execution is biased or that it's creepy.

I'm a human, I don't execute javascript programs and by default my browser does not either. Anyone using this will label me a bot.
