youtube-noscript-shim is a [[wikipedia:Userscript][userscript]] that implements the most basic
features of the [[https://youtube.com][YouTube]] user inteface, enough to make the site at
least barely usable without javascript.
YouTube is largely unusable unless you run their [[https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html][proprietary
javascript]]. This is a problem for multiple reasons:
- you value your software freedom
- you dislike executing javascript from remote sites because of the
remote code execution backdoor that it is
- your browser does not support javascript
* Installation
To run the userscript, you will need [[https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/][Icecat]]/[[https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/][Firefox]] with the
[[https://www.greasespot.net/][Greasemonkey addon]] installed. In addition, to play video, you will
need the excellent [[http://isebaro.com/viewtube/][ViewTube userscript]]. Also, consider using [[https://www.torproject.org/][tor]] for
added privacy/anonymity.
