That's a picture of a man's testicle in a chalice. While puzzling and slightly impressive, I wish I hadn't opened that at work :)

- colanderman 11y agoAll of JWZ's links do that, because he chose to break the internet for specious reasons. I doubt it even achieves his aim of reducing traffic from HN. I've contacted HN staff about disabling autolinking for URIs in his domain for the reason you state. They're effectively no different than any other "spammy" link due to his HN-specific redirection.
- dang 11y agoI'm not sure what the best solution is. For now I guess we'll put it in the category that other penis picture sites go in.
- colanderman 11y agoPerfect thanks for your attention to this issue.
- thieving_magpie 11y agoI would like to clarify that this was just a testicle and should probably be filed in a testicle-only picture category.
- dang 11y agoWow, that's... indisputable. What can't this community be relied upon to correct?
- thieving_magpie 11y agoIn hindsight, that's probably how it passed the penis filter! Thanks for doing your mod thing and preventing genital pictures, i know it's generally thankless.
- pvg 11y agoAdding 'noreferrer' to the link would fix it.
- dang 11y agoI'm loth to special-case that for just one site (besides which it would feel like responding in kind). But putting it in all links would be overkill.
- pvg 11y agoYou could also take out <meta name="referrer" content="origin"> from the pages, then there's no special casing and no referrer (in the https case). Aside from enhanced privacy it might serve as a disincentive to game HN since it becomes less obvious how much traffic HN brings in.
