You are using a third party service.
The second potential downside is that although
javascript is on your site you are actually calling a script on another server. This could lead to a couple of potential problems. If server is busy it will mean news feed will take longer to display on your site. The other point is if third party server fails or disappears altogether then your feed will not be displayed at all.
In summary there are a few downsides, but if you do not code and want some feeds on your site quickly then this is way to go. Ok, so now you understand what is involved here are links to sites that provide free RSS to javascript service. All you need to do is follow on site instructions.
