Fuck me, that is annoying!
Don't know whether to laugh or cry at this. Flashback of Windows 95-era viruses but created in a modern web browser. The GNU LibreJS project should link to this video. It shows clearly, perhaps too clearly, what is wrong with running untrusted code in the browser.
To those who can't be bothered to watch the whole talk and don't mind force-quitting their browser, skip right to the action at https://theannoyingsite.com
I had no idea things like these were still possible in the browser. Very inspiring, in a wrong way. Thanks for sharing this.

You should try to see if the website works in Windows 95 with the WASM Windows 95 implementation in Electron:

Creator of the site here :) Thanks for the nice comment. "Very inspiring, in a wrong way" is what I aspire to with my hacks.
