As a person who has been using NoScript or the equivalent for years now, I appreciate this. It also helps out your clients. Instead of a blank page or a broken one, I would now presumably see a functioning page. While they may not get any ad revenue through me, I can't buy their product if they don't let me on the site. Or review it, or tell people about it, etc. There would be a chance now that I would come away from their website with a positive impression instead of hitting the back button and trying the next search result or just writing them off completely.

If you care about privacy at all, the web is a very broken place.
