I'd start by not hijacking clicks with JavaScript. In Firefox, double clicking the body of the article (which I do often to search for terms in the article) changes the font size (??), clicking in some parts of the body activates a link to another article. It's been like this for years.

- mattdotc 11y agoDo you have another computer to try that on or perhaps start your browser without add-ons? I use Firefox as my main browser and read nytimes.com every day. I haven't experienced any of those behaviors, nor am I able to replicate them.
