- 8chanAnon 2y agoWASM runs in a sandbox. It can only talk to the outside world via Javascript so you can forget the idea that it might be a way to crack through browser security. Maybe somebody will make a web browser with all of the security locks disabled. Sort of like the Russian commander in "Hunting for Red October" who disabled his missiles' security features in order to more effectively target the American sub but then got blown up by his own missile.
