Some people in the free software community now appear to be asserting that requiring the execution of remotely-provided Javascript on a user's system is incompatible with free software even if the Javascript in question is free software, and I'm genuinely confused by this. Could someone please explain it to me?

(I do not want sarcastic responses, complaints about the FSF, or anything along those lines. I am asking an earnest question and want earnest replies)
