A lot of sites don't work without JavaScript enabled.  But many work 
well enough.  It's a matter of playing the odds.  The more sites you go 
to with JavaScript disabled by default, the less likely it is that 
you'll get some sort of malware from them.

Sure I often have to enable JS, but only after I've seen the site first. 
  If it looks dodgy, I just leave.  And often I can still click on a few 
links or read an article without JS.  It's rare I'll enable JS if I just 
need one thing from a site.
