Asm.js is okay, but with WebAssembly we will see more and more websites be a binary blob. (I am not speaking about C++ to WebAssembly, but Java/C#/Typescript/CoffeeScript/Dart/etc to WebAssembly). Instead of transpiling their languages to Javascript they will compile it as WebAssembly. This will be a tipping point. Is going back to MSNv1 or AOL style times is a good thing? In the end it's a real threat for the open web. Well let's hope this will never happen. Google will have the power to regulate them, by lowering their site rank.
