>“Enabling JavaScript allows us to better protect our services and users from bots and evolving forms of abuse and spam,” the spokesperson told TechCrunchI really wish TechCrunch hadn't let the spokesperson off the hook so easily for that statement. How could using Google without JavaScript be "safer" in any shape or form?
