Not much. Disabling javascript makes up for a lot. People who run every random bit of code that gets sent to their browser are definitely compromising their security and need the extra layers of defense.

Hmm, makes sense. It also seems like I have not paid enough attention to NoScript which is also available for Firefox Android.
