- bcoates 11y agoHere's a better, less Forbesy article that loads for me: http://www.amny.com/news/taxi-and-limousine-commission-seizing-of-cars-is-unconstitutional-federal-judge-rules-1.10911628 http://www.amny.com/news/taxi-and-limousine-commission-seizi...
- pavornyoh 11y agoThank you for the link. The original link isn't working for me. Hmm, I wonder if this is connected to this in the NY Times- http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/uber-is-taking-millions-of-manhattan-rides-away-from-taxis/?ex_cid=538twitter http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/uber-is-taking-millions-...
- dang 11y agoOk, we've changed the url to that from http://www.forbes.com/sites/instituteforjustice/2015/10/13/judge-rules-that-new-york-city-seizing-thousands-of-cars-without-warrants-is-unconstitutional/ http://www.forbes.com/sites/instituteforjustice/2015/10/13/j.... I'm not sure it's a better article, but probably close enough.

- dang 11y agoIt's not that easy. First, which sites are "sites like this" varies from user to user. Second, in the majority of cases it's possible to read the article, just annoying. Third, HN optimizes for good articles, and good articles do appear on sites like this. It's not a great situation but I don't think the alternative would be better for HN.
