I'm not a big fan of apps automatically initiating connections to any 3rd party website. If this leads to an increase in sites that remain functional without javascript and won't complain about a lack of a referer header I'll be glad, but I suspect that while 'microbrowers' today aren't usually running javascript and try to protect user's privacy, eventually we'll start seeing website previews being used to hack devices and steal user data.



The request is made on the back end so I’m not sure any of your comment holds up.
