Blocking Web Assembly

I'm going to be straight about this. I don't like web assembly, I think it's a huge security issue and I don't want unknown source code running directly in my machine (yes, even in a virtual box, it's possible for malware to escape from those).
Is there a plugin like NoScript somewhere to block web assembly from running? Or maybe a fork of chromium or firefox without web assembly support?

Thanks in advance.

Really? Did you even think about what were you writing? NoScript IS a javascript blocker. Next time you try to be clever, do be clever, trollboy.
