> You certainly could audit it, locally mirror it, and then do that every time they publish an update, but are you actually going to do that?

Yes, absolutely. For any third-party Javascript, I'd either mirror it locally and review it for safety, or sandbox it on a separate untrusted domain that has no access to customer data.



I think the separate domain is a great solution in that case, but my point is that if you're worried about the use of JSONP as the transport being the insecure link, you're too late.
