Off topic: I can't read the article, or any wired.com article, because after about 5 or 10 seconds, the screen gets taken over by a plea to disable my ad blocker or to pay $50/year to get ad-free wired.
That is fine, but I don't have any ad blocker of any kind. Javascript is enabled. The only thing is that I don't have java installed on my machine. It is hard to believe that their ad mechanism is relying on java.
- clusmore 10y agoIronically I have uBlock Origin installed and I don't get the plea.
- jasondrowley 10y agoCan confirm... I use uBlock Origin as well and I don't see the message either.

- Chris2048 10y agoI also have the same problem. After 5 or 10 second I remember that wired is a hyperbolic, hypocritical* hipster rag. * https://www.theguardian.com/media/2010/oct/19/wikileaks-julian-assange-wired-magazine https://www.theguardian.com/media/2010/oct/19/wikileaks-juli...
