  Leaving aside the popularity of iOS 6, I can tell you that in iOS 6.1 Apple solved it the problem that causes the automatic activation of the Javascript function when a Smart App Banner is received in Safari. These Smart App Banners warn users that a website has an application in the App Store, and the Javascript function does not remain disabled in Safari when the browser displays such a banner. Apple was warned about the existence of the problem, and in iOS 6.1 solved it, so the Javascript function will not activate automatically when you encounter a Smart App Banner.

Description: If a user disabled JavaScript in Safari Preferences, visiting a site which displayed a Smart App Banner would re-enable JavaScript without warning the user. This issue was addressed by not enabling JavaScript when visiting a site with a Smart App Banner.
