I wonder how feasible a rendering proxy would be. It would run the JS in a simulated browser environment and return the HTML.

Interactivity would be tricky, but static HTML is better than a blank page.

Edit: Found something very similar, but it targets legacy browsers using clickable image maps rather than privacy/security.
