The point of this is so that the user can't modify the site at all, despite what the proposal might say. Their goals and non-goals are contradictory.

Running this content in a container will not protect you. Just don't even try to adapt to it. Reject it completely.

Note what I mentioned in the blog post: most will probably be fine with advertisements so long as they aren't annoying.

You don't get to act the victim when you actively hurt the UX by having avertisements that get all up in your face and want to eek out every single penny like we're slaves.
