>So maybe JS should be more secure than any other language.
And it probably is. The sandboxing and security have been around a very long time.
If Python were the de-facto browser language, people would also blame it for "security problems", and would be just as paranoid about python running when they visit a website. I know whatever language it would be, people would still be paranoid.
I personally don't see any problem with Javascript. If someone knows how to use it, it can be very simple and powerful.
Before Javascript ever existed, I was wishing that websites had a scripting language. I didn't really care what it was, but Javascript answered my prayers rather nicely. But it wouldn't really matter what the language is, I'd still be coding for the web browser, and other people would be hating it for whatever reasons.
