    To make it harder, even if not impossible, for the average user to ad block them.

    Are you asking because you’re not sure of the answer, or because you are, and you know that web integrity will require a pre-compiled closed source binary to browse the web?

      No, I’m not sure. It’s possible that this is a benign technology, but many believe it’s not, including people at Mozilla, people at Vivaldi, Cory Doctorow, Jay Freeman (aka “Saurik”), the developer of Cydia (via The Register), so I’m concerned.

      This recent blog post also mentions the intent of disallowing unsigned software to browse the web. Perhaps you’ll find it interesting.
