Speaking for myself here, I don't see how people can use the web without javascript. As for Tor, you're routing other people's traffic while they route yours, so I can understand how such connections would be blocked given that blocking IPs is still a method for mitigating security issues, and you can't determine the IP of a Tor browser.

Its pretty easy: browse marked up documents, not applications. If some developer conflates the first for the second, move on.

Using Tor doesn't imply that your machine is also a Tor exit node.
